as far as I know: no, there isn't any. The only ways I know to quickly try out things are:


1. to change the start rule of your current project to what you want to try, or
2. to define a dedicated "test" project to which you can switch from the current one and back whenever you like, or
3. to open a second IDE, but I am not sure if they really like a clone beside.



I agree that an interactive GUI tool like Hugs in Haskell would be more than useful, but coding that is an aweful lot of
work, and noone has done it yet for Clean.


Regards,

zooloo
