What is the current state of REPLs for Nim? If I remember correctly, Nim had an official REPL a long time ago, but it was abandoned a few years back.

There is one bundled with a standard nim installation, and I use it regularly (when working in nim). It works, but it's not very good.

I expect the developers to know this, since its accessible only though the `$ nim secret` command.

inim [0], which already works pretty good, recently got an enthusiastic new maintainer, so things are good and improving.
