Any plans for a REPL? #192

Closed spacepluk closed 6 years ago

porky11 commented 6 years ago

It's already possible to write something like a REPL by using the evaluation function in a macro, that evaluates a form read from user and expands to this macro again. (not sure how I did it exactly, I may post it if you want, maybe I posted it somewhere different)

Thanks for this. There weren't any plans as such, but it's a good idea and was fairly simple to implement, not that it's particularly full-featured compared with some. See https://github.com/tomhrr/dale/blob/master/doc/1-12-repl.md for details.
