Either way is fine - what do you prefer? So there are three options:

 a) put it on Cecil home page where "vortex for play" used to be
    (that was my original motivation)

 b) put it on the release page

 c) put it on the _Cecil_ page (the one that talks about Cecil language)

I don't have a strong argument in favor of (a) (except promoting Cecil
language). Doing both (b) and (c) seems good.

Dunno. Opinions anyone?

I think the interpreter is a stand-alone executable, hence no instructions
needed. Does this seem right?

Done.

Technically speaking, either the Frame source or the machine-generated
file could be hacked if desired.

Done, too.
