I second that opinion! It is *so* great! A source editor, a browser, and
a REPL window -- what else could one want?!? [O.k., a cup of hot coffee...]

Plus, if you turn on logging [e.g., I run my web app servers under
"detatchtty" <http://www.cliki.net/detachtty> with a "dribble file"],
then even if you don't have an active connection to the REPL at the
moment something goes wrong, you can often look at the log file and
get enough information to get your debugging started in the right
direction when you *do* (re)connect.
