** Layer
To use this configuration layer, add it to your =~/.spacemacs=. You will need to
add =hy= to the existing =dotspacemacs-configuration-layers= list in this file.

* Key Bindings
** Debug

| Key Binding | Description         |
|-------------+---------------------|
| ~SPC m d d~ | insert pdb          |
| ~SPC m d t~ | insert pdb threaded |

** REPL
Start a Hy inferior REPL process with ~SPC m s i~. If =hy= is
available in system executable search paths, =hy= will be used to
launch the shell. You may change your system executable search path
by activating a virtual environment.

Send code to hy REPL commands:
