Comment on Pyrasite - Inject code into a running Python processparent

Debugging for one. Same reason you might want to attach to an already running C/C++ process with GDB.

(This is perhaps less less powerful for that use (since it would currently lack any sort of manual flow control), but I think the benefits of it actually being a REPL might offset that for some uses.)

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. The one thing I miss after moving from PHP is xdebug :/

Profiling too?
