No it isn't, it's useless, as anyone that reads beyond the first
sentences finds out.

Limitations and Caveats

Ejacs is basically a toy. It is regrettably insufficient in several
important dimensions, including:

Integration: Ejacs does not yet provide any integration with Emacs

...
-------------------------------------------------------

It's little more than a nice js mode for emacs, which is exactly what
Steve did next.  When that was done, he dumped ejacs on the discard
pile @ google.

Try considering the number of lines of code involved to what was
achieved.

It's reasonably interesting, though.

I may be biased - I've been wrestling trying to implement a JS
interpreter in Common Lisp.
