Subject: Win32::Console and IRB

I'm using IRB with Wirble and Win32::Console in order to colorize the
output. The coloring works, but whenever I hit backspace, the character
to the left-1 gets eaten. E.g., if I type "test" and hit backspace, I'm
left with "te t" (obviously the last "t" there should have been the
character that got deleted).

I thought this might be caused by Wirble at first, so I disabled this
but the problem persisted. I tried disabling Win32::Console next and
this cleared the problem. So it seems that Win32::Console and IRB aren't
playing nicely together.

Can anyone suggest a fix to this?

Many thanks,
Charles
