It just means that you can interactively evaluate code, redefining
global variables on the fly. So if you have a server application (for
instance) and some way of interacting with it (remotely, or through a
console), then it is possible to interactively change things. This is
not fully automatic and the application needs to have explicit support
for it, but it is certainly possible.
