How is Huston using Chrome's console as a node REPL?

I can use the node REPL from my terminal but it would be nice in Chrome too.

Hey Jason,

You can use CTRL + SHIFT + J if you are on Windows and CMD + OPT + J if you are on a Mac to open Chorme's console.

Good luck!

Thanks for the reply. I know the shortcut to open the console, what I am asking though is how Huston imported his example files into Chrome so he could access all his code from the console. For example when he is able to access the methods from his example module awesomeNewModule ...this is easy enough from the terminal by typing node at the command prompt and then .load <yourfilename> but I'm not sure how to accomplish the same thing in Chrome.
