[elprans]

allow $vars in REPL

This should be done via SET GLOBAL server-side (see also https://edgedb.com/roadmap/#access_control)

[elprans]

My wishlist to start using this REPL by default is:

• [x] Acceptable multiline editing experience
• [x] Working vi mode Ability to edit queries in $EDITOR
• [x] Syntax highlighting
• [x] \psql
• [x] Persistent command history

[tailhook]

@elprans vi mode is currently enabled by configuring rustyline. Do you need a config or a shortcut?

[elprans]

We can have it as a slash command and then have a config file that simply lists slash commands executed at startup.

[tailhook]

Well, the problem with the current implementation is that vi mode treats the whole input as line rather than a physical line. So it's barely usable :(

[tailhook]

Most things are done. Others are moved to individual issues, mostly in the edgedb-cli repo.
