From: "P. A." Date: 2009-09-15T02:24:38+09:00 Subject: Re: The standard terminal commands has disappeared in irb I've just finished installation the Readline extension using your instructions. The realine.so library was installed in /ruby-1.9.1/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9.1/i686-linux. I can require it in simple ruby programs or from `ruby -e "require 'readline' #=> true"`. Also I can use all the standard command line shortcuts in the irb console as I wanted. But when I require 'readline' in irb itself for some reason it returns the false value. Why? I didn't hear anything about the .irbc files thread. Could you give me the link, please. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
