    Special functions

    The REPL provides several functions in the global scope:

    --eval flag allows you to run some code in the runtime before you are dropped into the REPL. This is useful for importing some code you commonly use in the REPL, or modifying the runtime in some way:

    --eval-file flag

    Files can be specified as paths or URLs. URL files are cached and can be reloaded via the --reload flag.

    If is also specified, then --eval-file files are run before the --eval code.

    Tab completions are crucial feature for quick navigation in REPL. After hitting tab key, Deno will now show a list of all possible completions.
