def load(file) {
    def [v, s] := <elang:syntax.EParser>(file.getTwine()) \
                      .evalToPair(interp.getTopScope())
    interp.setTopScope(s)
    return v
}

Evaluate this in the repl, then load(<file:my-horton-stuff.eexpr>).  
All names defined by the expression in the file will be in scope at  
the repl.

There ought to be a way to do something like this for an updoc file,  
but I don't have it yet.
