I don't really understand what you want to do exactly. I think mostly you have to implement it yourself, possibly by using something like https://docs.racket-lang.org/charterm/index.html or maybe https://docs.racket-lang.org/lux-charterm/index.html
https://pkgd.racket-lang.org/pkgn/search?tags=terminal I would guess that the rmacs package could contain quite a few useful tricks, but haven't looked at it in depth. I also tried a few emacs-style key-combos in the racket repl only one, that I always use in terminals, worked: ctrl-r for reverse history search It allows you to quickly eval a previously entered expression in the repl, to me it seems that this is implemented in racket somewhere, but I am not sure whether it is in the default repl, or whether it has something to do with xrepl. https://docs.racket-lang.org/xrepl/index.html?q=xrepl That said you could have a prefix for commands like : or / for just typing static commands, or something more interactive by managing the terminal buffer yourself with something like charterm. I think lux with the lux-charterm might be a good way to build your terminal application from many little pieces that are combined to form the full application, but I haven't used it so far, would be nice to find a medium sized example for a lux terminal application.
