REPLs

  • Inferior Emacs Lisp Mode (IELM) for interacting with Emacs' own internal Lisp
  • mozrepl for interacting with an external web browser's internal JavaScript engine
  • SLIME for interacting with an external Common Lisp or Clojure instance

Version Control

  • dvc provides a standard interface between Emacs and distributed version control systems

Within Emacs, ediff provides sophisticated diff and merge functions. Both vc and dvc integrate well with ediff.
