Maybe I have that incorrectly, this does seem to work when using lldb from
Xcode's console. This doesn't work when typing `lldb` into the terminal and
using it from there. I assumed the two were the same.
On a separate note, --top-level doesn't seem to work for swift (from Xcode
console lldb). We need it to work with swift for the scripts we'll be
writing.
*(lldb) expr -l swift --top-level -- let i = 10*
*expr -l swift --top-level -- let a = i*
error: <EXPR>:3:9: error: use of unresolved identifier 'i'
let a = i
