comp.lang.ruby

should irb default to auto complete?

Seems to me like it would be a very user friendly default to have irb
default to command completion.
I realize this is possible by setting it up manually but...default? no?
yes?
Thanks.

It does for me, under Linux (Ubuntu's own version, and also compiled
from source).

Where are you running Ruby where it does not? It's probably a
platform-specific and/or installation problem.

Really? Are you sure your .irbrc doesn't require 'irb/completion'? Or
maybe there's an alias defined somewhere?

I've always had to do that with ubuntu, xandros, centos, mandrake, etc.
