> In addition to pickling Python objects, dill provides the ability to save the state of an interpreter session in a single command.

Wonder if this could be leveraged to bring the image-based development experience from Smalltalk/Pharo to Python. Curiously several lisp dialects are developed on top of Python (e.g. hylang, hissp), but the only active similar effort for Smalltalk I found was this: https://github.com/SOM-st/PySOM
