The structure REPLS offers procedures to start up the
read-eval-print-loop (REPL) from a script.
(script-repl greeting focus-value iport oport eport)
This procedure starts up a new REPL which greets the user with
GREETING, has FOCUS-VALUE as initial focus-value (accessible through
##) and uses the ports IPORT for input, OPORT for output and eport for
error messages.
(remote-repl greeting focus-value port)
Same as above but communication is done via a socket on port PORT.
The structure SOCKET2STDPORTS offers a very simple facility to map the
current input and output ports to the ports of a socket.
(socket<->std-ports host port)
This procedure first establishes a TCP socket to port PORT on host
HOST. Afterwards is reads all data from (current-input-port) and
forwards it into the socket's input port. Likewise it reads all data
from the socket's output port and prints it to
(current-output-port).
(with-inspecting-handler port thunk)
This procedure installs a exception handler which captures all
conditions which satisfy the predicate ERROR?. It will then fire up a
remote REPL on port PORT with the continuation of the condition as
focus value. Currently, the continuation of the REPL is the
continuation of the call to WITH-INSPECTING-HANDLER.
As an example for the usage of the remote inspecting utility, consider
a program using WITH-INSPECTING-HANDLER with an obviously bogus body:
(with-inspecting-handler 8080 (lambda () (/ 1 0)))
Now start a second scsh:
[0 gasbichl@ventoux interaction] scsh -lm interfaces.scm -lm packages.scm -o 'socket2stdports'
Welcome to scsh 0.6.3
Type ,? for help.

Unfortunately, SOCKET<->STD-PORTS is currently not able to exit
gracefully if the connection dies:
