OK, in a compiled language like Go a REPL implementation looks hard- am I wrong? It seems like besides the code being R/O a debugger is pretty close too. When testing with a debugger I setup my program to run the same tests, read the same input etc. In this way I can use the debugger, find and issue, change the code, set a break point, re-run the program and I'm right back where I left off. This sounds functionally similar to using a REPL.
