Juno IDE for Julia, how to interact?

Question

One way to comfortably use an IDE in an interactive language is to communicate through the IDE in a command-line environment. I am wondering if this is possible in Juno. In other words, is there a command-line environment, as in Matlab, for calling functions, providing initial values, and executing expressions. If so, what is the way to access it?

Note. Juno has a console window, but I can’t find a way to insert my commands into it.

Note. The question and this answer apply to the Juno version based on LightTable. The current version is based on Atom and has an interactive console.

You cannot enter commands in the console in Juno - to display the output. Commands can be sent from the editor by placing the cursor in the line for sending and pressing Ctrl + Enter or Shift + Enter . Then the value will be displayed in a small pop-up window next to the line, and the output will be printed on the console if you see the console.

Please note that the inability to use the console as you wish is by design. See here for console information from Juno docs.
