Well, well, less than 24 hours since my last blog post, I have more updates for you!

Thanks to GitHub, rb-readline, the Pure-Ruby Readline project I’ve mentioned earlier, have now two forks and 3 bugs fixed!

Thanks to Roger Pack and Jugyo !!!

Now, there is no gem for rb-readline, mainly because readline needs to be available even if RubyGems is not loaded (like on IRB).

So, to install the updated package:

• Download rb-readline-0.1.2.zip
• Extract to a folder and open a command prompt there
• Execute ruby setup.rb

That should update the installed RbReadline, but just to verify:

ruby -rreadline -e "puts Readline::RB_READLINE_VERSION"

The output should say 0.1.2

That’s all! Enjoy!
