It would be great to have REPL capabilities in console, similar to what we have in web browsers. This way it would be much easier to start working with live model data

I have a POC one (https://github.com/archimatetool/archi-scripting-plugin/tree/run-local-script) but don't know when/if it will make it into jArchi.

Looking forward to it. It would serve a number of purposes. For one, it would provide a quick validation of a bit of code one is developing in the external editor. And, secondly, it provides a "poorman's" query interface.

Especially with respect to the second purpose mentioned, it would be very nice if that REPL could load scripts on-the-fly or, at least, load a script(s) prior to starting the REPL itself.
