@section{Interactive evaluation}
The Racket REPL provides everything you expect from a modern interactive
environment. For example, it provides an @xreplcmd{enter} command to have a
REPL that runs in the context of a given module, and an @xreplcmd{edit} command
to invoke your editor (as specified by the @envvar{EDITOR} environment
variable) on the file you entered. A @xreplcmd{drracket} command makes it easy
to use your favorite editor to write code, and still have DrRacket at hand to
try things out.
For more information, see @other-doc[xrepl-doc].

Shell auto-completion for @exec{bash} and @exec{zsh} is available in
@filepath{share/pkgs/shell-completion/racket-completion.bash} and

respectively.
To enable it, just run the appropriate file from your @tt{.bashrc} or
your @tt{.zshrc}.
The @filepath{shell-completion} collection is only available in the Racket Full
