Same problem here - running your "aeditor" script doesn't work (
it's unable to find the files required from main.rb ).  What does work
is changing to the installed aeditor directory and running "main.rb"
manually.

A few other things that I noticed fairly quickly:
  1) How should I quit? - I found many ways to "quit" through
     unhandled exceptions (escape enter, shift-fkey, ctrl-c enter etc
     :) 
  2) Running in a large xterm, the top status bar seems to have a hard
     coded width
  3) No backspace (or foward-delete)?  ctrl-h didn't work either
  4) the "play" action raises an uncaught exception if nothing has been
     recorded yet.  On that note, it might be nice to change "record" to
     "stop" during the record operation
  5) Single line is fairly sluggish (I know, I know, premature
     optimisation :)

Looks promising tho, I'll be keeping an eye on development.  I quite
like the period as an EOL marker - hadn't seen that before.
