Unfortunately, hijack hangs in 1.9 and my app runs under 1.8 and 1.9. (The person concerned said in April he would look into 1.9 but seems nothing has happened since.) live-console also borks in 1.9. giving an irb encoding error, however, i commented off a line and now the samples work. So live-console may be the way to go for now. Robert, since this is for testing only, and i would disable it otherwise, so its not an issue. It would be nice if someone would take up hijack and live-console seriously and not let it become abandonware. thanks, rkumar. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
