 Improve the standard Python REPL.
 
 This module attempts to emulate the workflow of ghci or lisp repls. It uses
-importlib to load a namespace from the given path. It then binds 'r()' to a
-function that reloads the same namespace.
+importlib to load a namespace from the provided path, typechecks it with mypy,
+and provides some tools for improving repl-driven development.
+
+This module is called in Biz/Ide/repl.sh like so:
+
+    python -i Biz/Repl.py NS PATH
+
+where NS is the dot-partitioned namespace of the main module, and PATH is the
+path to the same file. In the future this could be expanded to be a list of
+additional files to load.
