@xabean @mjd The following exist in various states of decrepitude if you want to explore a #Perl-based #shell:

* https://metacpan.org/dist/Zoidberg/view/bin/zoid
* https://metacpan.org/dist/psh/view/doc/psh.pod

As for a #REPL, here's the simplest:

```perl
while (<>) { eval; print $@ }
```

And if you squint, there's a REPL in the Perl debugger:

```shell
perl -dE 1
```

For more sophisticated REPLs, look into:

I saw some posts about REPLs in #lisp and I was wondering: How do people actually use a #REPL?

I like reproducibility and I have grown up with compiled languages, so REPLs feel foreign to me.

🌘 客製化 Lisp REPL 的方法
➤ 擁抱原生,客製化你的 Lisp 終極體驗
https://aartaka.me/customize-repl.html
本文探討如何透過客製化 Lisp 的 Read-Eval-Print Loop (REPL),以提升開發體驗。作者強調應盡量使用現有工具並避免不必要的額外層級,並分享了他個人偏好的客製化策略,包括自訂提示符、擴充命令、善用 reader macros,以及利用 rlwrap 增強終端機功能。他也對比了原生 REPL 與外部 GUI 除錯器的優劣,並提及了 library 管理的常見方法。
+ 作者的觀點很有說服力,確實很多時候客製化原生工具比引入新層級更具優勢,我也想試試看他提到的 Trivial Toplevel Prompt 和 Trivial Toplevel Commands。
+ 雖然我喜歡 GUI 除錯器,但作者提到原生 REPL 的強大功能,讓我開始思考是否應該更深入地挖掘它們的潛力。reader macros 的部分確實很吸引人!

Customizing Lisp REPLs

Lisp REPLs are a good tool, but some consider it too rigid. Which leads to abundance of proxy REPLs. Except… you don’t need them!

The REPL-Driven Development workflow in Julia is a game-changer. 🚀

You can build and debug your application interactively, modifying a running program without restarting it. Perfect for a fast, productive feedback loop. #REPL #productivity #opensource

#Lisp #REPL s are these unique beasts, clean windows into the raw interactivity of the languages and a mold to build it from. They are text-only-ish, though. Which is not always optimal. In my new piece, I look at the state of art in #CommonLisp implementation REPLs and their customizabity, and try to advocate for using them still.

Would any of you play a terminal interface based #rouge-like /-lite #game similar to NetHack, but it's the future and #cyberpunk? You could walk up to old terminals and run commands in an (ancient) OS built into the game. It would be a #textadventure, so you would have an inventory and could interact with characters and the world in interesting ways. And how about editing the game's own #source code while playing, using a #REPL?

If I don't build this, I hope someone does. 😄

I fuckin love this highly customizable, tweakable and hackable beast    

#StumpWm #CommonLisp #Emacs #REPL

@snyssfx @PaniczGodek no #repl, no normal OOP (like common lisp's clos or clojure'alike), no clojure-alike multimethods, no clojure-alike spec, no lisp-alike pattern-matching, no java/jvm interop (need to write a lot of code again), no ability to do frontend (unlike clojurescript and many other lisp solutions) with it and no normal and supported ability to write Android apps (unlike say react native + cljs), no macroses (like all lisps)...
Um. What else?
I just can't take it seriously.

- Did you know that Guile's metacommands are comming to Arei soon?
- That we already have an incredibly useful guile stack traces viewer?
- That Ares now works with stable version of Guile and doesn't require guile-next?

No? We got you covered:

@evgandr StumpWM, such nostalgia 🙂

@evgandr

oh now I think I remember why did I started following you here xD

@farooqkz
Aww, not only for birds' photos and extremely long blogposts?!  

@evgandr

hmm I don't remember your blogposts. Some people I'm following do massive boosts like myself. Then I lose most of the valuable content...
