    Years ago, I had a real problem remembering M-x ielm. Because I only used
    this command occasionally, I was never able to remember it.

I never remember ielm, and when I see that name, I have no idea what
it does.  I recall I looked it up once, perhaps a year ago, but
nothing stuck.  I had to look it up again now.

`ielm' might be a good file name prefix, if this had multiple files.
A prefix needs to be short.  But the package should have a natural
name for users.

One thing I don't understand is why this is better than the *scratch*
buffer and Lisp Interaction Mode.  What are the advantages of ielm?
Should the *scratch* buffer be implemented by ielm?  Or would that
have some drawback?
