I'd be interested to know what the supposed workflow for 
$interpretor-in-$editor is.  (This may be more general than emacs 
julia-repl)

I've tried Julia, R in Atom, Emacs, and I don't seem to be able to work 
with it.  In the Julia / R / bash / ipython / ... the up-arrow is my 
friend.  That is how I quickly find and repeat/edit/... a previous command. 
 It appears to me that the first thing that an interpretor-in-editor does 
is hijack the up-arrow, and make this move the cursor around in the buffer. 
 (I suppose I cannot really blame the editor, that is what it normally does 
with up-arrow and friends).  

So I figure there must be a different workflow than I am used to (edit 
file--switch to repl--include("file")--run function).  What is that 
workflow?

Cheers,
