Oh yes - C-x C-e to evaluate the preceding expression "in place." That would indeed normally accomplish what it sounds like he is trying to do.
No, I'm trying to copy it over to the REPL. The idea is to try to evaluate the S-expression on its own. This doesn't work if one tries to evaluate it directly inside the function because typically it needs to use stuff (variables) that are defined by evaluations outside that expression. This works fine for self-contained expressions, but those are the exception.
Anyway, the idea of copying it over to the REPL is so I can modify it suitably.
