in reply to Perl REPLs

My repl is basically the same 15 line perl script I wrote nearly 15 years ago. 3 years ago it looked like this.

Today, it looks like this:

<Reveal this spoiler or all in this thread>

It has at various times had more preloaded stuff, and less; and more and less logic in the loop, but the core 10 or so lines have barely changed at all.

It has never, and will never be published because then someone would want it to "work properly with lexical variables"; "automatically print the results of every evaluation"; and "support strict"; etc. All Of which I have no need for, nor the desire to complicate my single most used perl script ever, by adding.

      Sorry, but my repl still isn't available anywhere. If you download a copy, it becomes your repl; not mine. I hope you understand the difference.
