I uploaded a small demo of a D repl i've been playing with,
In past I have seen D repls, they come and then they fade
away, regardless how much work they have required to be
created, or how much refined they are. The fact they have
appeared more than once shows some persons desire them. Yet, I
see no comments from Walter or Andrei.
I think a repl needs to be inside the standard D distribution,
it's not an external toy meant to be forgotten, it's one
essential tool for D development, like a profiler, debugger,
or rdmd :-)

It's cool, but it's yet another tool to maintain. Thus their
lack of enthusiasm I guess. Unless someone comes forward and is
ready to maintain the repl, in which case I think everyone
would applaud.
Compiler as a library, usual rant, no need to repeat.
