Warning

Multiline statements don't yet sort-of work.

This plugin is in its early stages and I'm very new to Ruby programming. It probably won't do anything harmful to your computer, but it might, at times, not work as expected.

Installation

Use pathogen and clone this repository into your bundle directory.

Usage

Start the REPL using <leader>R or :RbREPLToggle<CR>. Type away. To stop the REPL run either of those commands again. This will not close the buffer.

It's possible to evaluate a file you're working on inside the REPL by running the command :RbREPLEvalFile<CR> on a Ruby file.
