So I like repl programming, Im aware of dlang.io and the project

being out of date, and slow. But today I needed it to be in the 
terminal, so I made an another terrible solution

Its an ed like line editer... so terrible, truely awful. Maybe 
someone else cares tho.

Are there other solutions or some travail improvement?

yeah you can build shared libraries and use them to load new 
versions of the code dynamically.
There is a drepl project which used this IIRC.
However maybe it won't compile anymore?

adr also suggested dll hacks, and I still dont understand it
d compiler is fast enough that you can just copy a 100 lines in 
and out of memory and have it compile effectly instantly; if it 
didnt Id be blaming the std before the code the copyed such a 
comparably small string

This is the drepl project: 
https://github.com/dlang-community/drepl

The way I've always written my programs is to make a few changes, 
recompile with DMD, and fix anything that needs fixing. This 
works just fine even for projects with tens of thousands of lines 
of code as long as you avoid anything but the simplest templates.

I had some issues with the linenoise dependency 
`preBuildCommands` script, around a year ago.

The fix was to use the `$LINENOISE_PACKAGE_DIR` variable instead 
of `$PACKAGE_DIR` to build drepl.

from:
```
"cd $PACKAGE_DIR; [ -f C/linenoise.o ] || cc -c -fPIC -o 
C/linenoise.o C/linenoise.c" platform="posix"
```

to:
```
"cd $LINENOISE_PACKAGE_DIR; [ -f C/linenoise.o ] || cc -c -fPIC 
-o C/linenoise.o C/linenoise.c" platform="posix"
```

I changed it directly in the 
`~/.dub/packages/linenoise/1.1.0+1.0.0/linenoise/dub.json`.

The parsing being done by an older libdparse library, short 
function forms like `int addOne(int i) => i + 1;` or named 
function argument are not available.

Would you be able to submit the fix?

I dont remeber why I dont care about drepl much, but isnt it 
overcomplex for what you need?

Repl-ish tools shouldnt need to parse d, just that the text 
editor to compiler maybe more then 1 key press before giving you 
results, the compiler for sub lets say 500 lines files should be 
a key press compile time.
