Can you spell out what REPL is? I have no idea what this means and searching online isn't helpful...
There was a problem hiding this comment.
REPL means "read-evaluate-print loop". I replaced it with "Python shell". It's the interactive session you get when you just type python on the command line.
Do this to jump into a Python shell:
$ ./bin/python-spectre
>>> import spectre
>>> print(spectre.__version__)
Or, if you have ipython installed, do `./bin/python-spectre -m ipython`.
You can also use this to run py scripts, launch a jupyter server, etc.
This way you don't need to deal with PYTHONPATHs etc.
