That's a neat idea. But I'm curious how many people actually use native REPLs for anything beyond trivial evaluation.

I'll use a Guile or SBCL REPL for some quick math (assuming it's something that's not trivial in dc) or to test out a quick idea, but I rarely send more than one to three forms before closing it. That's only if I don't have Emacs open where I can just do it in the scratch buffer. Anything that needs more than a couple defuns goes into SLIME or guiser.

So, people who use native REPLs, what do you do with them?
