After defining variables, functions, etc., can you save what you have done on the REPL too an text .clj file?

A Clojure REPL (standing for Read-Eval-Print Loop) is a programming environment which enables the programmer to interact with a running Clojure program and modify it, by evaluating one code expression at a time.
So a ClojureScript REPL consists of two parts: the first part is written in Clojure, it handles the REPL UI, and takes care of compiling ClojureScript to JavaScript. This JavaScript code then gets handed over to the second part, the JavaScript environment, which evaluates the code and hands back the result.
To start a REPL session in Eclipse, click the Menu option, go to Run As → Clojure Application. This will start a new REPL session in a separate window along with the console output. Conceptually, REPL is similar to Secure Shell (SSH).
You can exit the REPL by typing Ctrl+D (pressing the Ctrl and D keys at the same time).
most people work with the repl through an editor such ad Eclipse/Emacs/vim and that editor has the ability to save the repl, though without some diligence on the developers part this will likely be an incomplete record of what happened. Some of the state of the repl may have come from loading files etc which will be in a different state.
So the short answer is typically not.
