 An internal method used to parse and execute `REPLServer` keywords.
 Returns `true` if `keyword` is a valid keyword, otherwise `false`.
 
+### replServer.setupHistory(historyPath, callback)

+
+* `historyPath` {string} the path to the history file
+* `callback` {Function} called when history writes are ready or upon error
+  * `err` {Error}
+  * `repl` {repl.REPLServer}

+Initializes a history log file for the REPL instance. When executing the
+Node.js binary and using the command line REPL, a history file is initialized
+by default. However, this is not the case when creating a REPL
+programmatically. Use this method to initialize a history log file when working
+with REPL instances programmatically.
