| (what is the advantage of eli over just running lisp from eshell?)

  The direct support for multiprocessing, multiple listeners, compiling and
  evaluating code directly from Common Lisp buffers in the background with
  output to background streams that pop up in new buffers only when needed.

  Please read the documentation on ELI.  It is _so_ much more than just an
  interface to the initial top-level read-eval-print-loop.
