Absolutely! That was the main motivation for installing clisp on my
machine originally :-). The whole class was sick and tired of having to
retype every line while we were learning by experimenting. Of course as
time progressed we dropped to the editor more often and used the line
editing less, but it was still useful for invoking the functions we'd
written.
