[INFO] related packages about inim HOT 4 CLOSED

Both are indeed similar. Now INim has some better features (see updated README.md, though the GIF is outdated). I plan to keep adding/accepting more features to INim, such as auto-complete, to get to the level of bpython3. nrpl depends on TCC [http://bellard.org/tcc/], so doesn't work out of the box.

The other package is dead, last update 2015.

to get to the level of bpython3

you probably be already know but ipython is some good features not present in bpython (and there's a combo bipython that combines both...)

There is also the official REPL nim secret (seems to work as an interpreter which is limited[1], instead of re-compilation) but it has many problems [1] so it's hidden from the users and won't be documented [2].

tnim (not the website) seems way more bugged than INim for REPL usage, after messing up with the indentation I got errors afterwards (invalid indentation), closing and opening again didn't fix, had to clear my session with \quitclear, this behavior is not expected for a python-like REPL.

It looks like INim is the best out there.
