Emacs Advent Calendar 9: devdocs, code-cells, dREPL, etc.
A clarification - I don't consider Jinx a fork of Jit-spell, otherwise I would have made this clear in the package README and the package header. There is no code shared between the two packages and the overall approach differs in the essential points (Enchant vs external process, Checking only the visible region, ...). It is true that I started Jinx because of our discussion https://github.com/astoff/jit-spell/issues/9, but this does not make Jinx a fork. Jinx is technically closer to spell-fu, which uses a similar technique, where only the visible region in the window is checked.

dREPL: An attempt, rather experimental at this point, to improve deficiencies of the Python shell such as limited completion and lack of multi-line input editing. It's actually a REPL protocol geared towards dumb terminals (which is what Emacs looks like from the perspective of its subprocesses), so it's actually not limited to Python and can be used to create other fully-featured shells.
