Hehe. I love this language.

Explanation

There are two pyramid chains. The first is:

    ^
   / \
  /set\
 ^-----^
/a\   /#\
---  ^---
    /l\
   /ine\
   -----

This sets variable a to line (a line read from STDIN), as a value (#).

The second:

    ^
   / \
  /do \
 ^-----^
/a\   / \
---  /out\
    ^-----
   /a\
   ---

This is a do while loop, with the left pyramid being the condition, and the right one being the body. Equivalent to:

do {
    out(a);
} while(a);

which is what we want.
