Vim and Banjos

Tab Completion and ANSI colours in IRB

To get up and running with wirble:

sudo gem install wirble

and then add the following to your ~/.irbrc

begin
  # load wirble
  require 'wirble'

  # start wirble (with color)
  Wirble.init
  Wirble.colorize
  rescue LoadError => err
  warn "Couldn't load Wirble: #{err}"
end

Now typing “foo”.[tab] will give you all the ruby String methods.

Snazzy!
