Description
Jisp uses a few methods that may not be supported in older JavaScript environments like IE8. Examples include Array.prototype.indexOf, Array.prototype.reduce, and probably a few others. There needs to be a compiler capability, with a compiler option (default off? definitely off in the REPL), to include polyfill for this stuff into the compiled source.
