There is drepl, it's not fancy, but works for basic use cases...
https://github.com/drepl/drepl
But that doesn't interface with ones own program? I'm not talking
about a standalone repl but something what can use from their own
program and then use that command line interface of it(or just
send command through text) and interact with the original program:
string foo() { writeln("foo"); }
void main()
{
repl.init();
writeln(repl.exec("foo()"));
writeln(repl.exec(readline()));
repl.OpenInterface(); // <- A new command window is open that
lets us run code from it, code that has access to this programs
code.
}
Or whatever.

Maybe it can be integrated back in to a D program and then work out well: D->python->D.

repl like interface with D app
I am developing a D app and I have a need to test things out. I do not want to have to recompile the app every time I want to test some functionality out. Suppose I have an app with some functions like foo, bar, etc... in some module m. I would like to be able to do basic stuff like writeln(m.foo()); or auto x = m.bar() + 3; etc... This way I can write the functions, compile, then test them out without compiling. e.g., m.FlipLightSwitch(34); which turns on the 34th light in the house, then m.FlipLightSwitch(34); which turns it off. This should take about 1-2 seconds to test RATHER than about 1m to do the compilation, running, etc. Having a history buffer would be nice too and even a debugger showing the basic state(nothing fancy). Anything like this out there. Lua has things like this that are very nice to do because they allow for quick testing and prototyping.
