 ## Design and Features
 
-The `repl` module exports the `repl.REPLServer` class. While running, instances
-of `repl.REPLServer` will accept individual lines of user input, evaluate those
-according to a user-defined evaluation function, then output the result. Input
-and output may be from `stdin` and `stdout`, respectively, or may be connected
