I couldn&rsquo;t find any simple examples on how to use it, but a quick look at the source code and some playing around in <a href="https://www.lonecpluspluscoder.com/2014/03/22/i-didnt-realise-emacs-has-an-elisp-repl/" title="I didn’t realise Emacs has an elisp repl">ielm</a> got me there. Well, after I finally upgraded to Emacs 24.4 on my main machine.</p>
