# ABSTRACT: retain previous results to be able to refer to them later

use base 'Reply::Plugin';

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  ; .replyrc
  [ResultCache]
  variable = r

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This plugin caches the results of successful evaluations, and provides them in
a lexical array (by default C<@res>, although this can be changed via the
C<variable> option). This means that you can, for instance, access the value
returned by the previous line with C<$res[-1]>. It also modifies the output to
include an indication of where the value is stored, for later reference.
