Can't get irb to read its configuration file

[Pierre Barbier de Reuille]

Hello,

I was trying to use Wirble, and following the mail, I edited my ~/.irbrc

However, it seems that the content of that file is just not read ... I
tried to debug the irb scripts and I found out that this file was
correctly found, however, the content do not seems to be evaluated at all

Also, I tried to evaluate that .irbrc file directly from irb and it does
work ...

For information I am using :

$ irb --version
irb 0.9.5(05/04/13)
$ ruby --version
ruby 1.8.4 (2005-12-24) [i486-linux]

Thanks,

Pierre

Did you just put something in there like "puts 'hello'"? Did it print?

Are you using ver 0.1.2 http://pablotron.org/files/gems/wirble-0.1.2.gem
http://pablotron.org/files/gems/wirble-0.1.2.gem.asc

I did not get any with 0.1.1 and it did not work until i installed 0.1.2

You could run irb in debug mode to hopefully see any errors in .irbrc

irb -d

Thanks, for some reason, installing the 0.1.2 corrected the problem. And
indeed, using "irb -d" (which I didn't know about) shown an error while
loading wirble. The strangest part was I could load wirble outside the
irbrc file without problem :/

But well, now it is working, thanks
