On FOSDEM and Guix Days we were discussing an absence of REPL in Arei/Ares.

One of the concerns was: with in-buffer evaluation workflow in contrast to REPL/jupyter notebook we don't see the correspondence between an expression and the value of its evaluation. It can negatively impact user experience and also makes Arei harder for learning/exploring.

I mentioned that this can be addressed by eval-and-print-to-comment.

Here is the demo of how it works:

@abcdw ooh, I like the indentation.

I tend to show my return values in a dedicated buffer with cider and clojure which works well as I often have a big table of data I want to look at
