 Does Perl6/Rakudo have an interactive perl shell like ruby does with irb?

 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interactive_Ruby_Shell

 Would be great for trying out the new syntax quickly.

 My phone accidentally sent an empty reply to this. What I was supposed to
 reply with was information regarding the built-in Rakudo REPL. You can see
 it in action here:

A mention of today's RE(P)L in Rakudo practically mandates a mention
of its known deficiencies:

Last I heard, pmichaud++ was well under way to fixing the annoying
variable-forgetting bug, by extending the way eval works.

$ perl -ple '$_=eval'

(In Windows: perl -ple $_=eval )

Enter the command `exit` to end the session.

Programming is as much about organization and communication
as it is about coding.

I like Perl; it's the only language where you can bless your
thingy.

With rakudo, just running perl6 with no arguments drops you into the RE_L.

Would be great for trying out the new syntax quickly.

A Perl 6 TextMate bundle and Panic Coda plugin would be great too!

Thanks!
