Irb problem in OSX

S

ssmoot

I'm not sure how I got into this situation being a Mac newbie, but I
think it started after running one of the various "fix ruby on OS X"
scripts.

The problem is, everytime I click on my Terminal shortcut on the dock,
it jumps directly into irb. I have to type "exit" to go back to the
bash shell.

Anyone know how I might fix this?

Check for something goofy in the file ~/.profile.

I don't see anything in ~/.profile except some export line to set the
path. I'm not sure where .bashrc or .bash_profile would be located...

In the same place as .profile. It's nothing strange not to have any of thos=

Yeah, I don't have 'em then I guess.

I think it must be something like that. If I'm quick enough, I can
clearly see "clear; irb" when I open a shell just before it drops into
irb.

I just don't know how to find out where it's coming from...

Thanks for the help btw.
