How to use Python shell

[clemense]

There is an option --python-shell which starts a CLPython shell. Are there any variables defined at this point? If yes, what are their names?
Is there maybe an example how to use the shell option effectively?

Nothing defined yet. See the demo domain semantics python files for some examples of packages to import. dir() works as expected. import CL followed by CL.DESCRIBE(FOO) will access the docstrings.
