Nice! I'll note, specially for pythonistas, that even with your simple (edit) and (load) shortcuts, you are doing something more than in Python: while in Python you quit and re-run your program from the terminal, in CL you quit the debugger, you stay in the running Lisp REPL, you edit code while your REPL still around, and you re-load code from the REPL. It's already a faster write-run loop, and you can add advantages like keeping all your test variables around.
