when you run irb and type:
>>require 'config'
>>conf

a huge amount of information prints out on the screen (at least on the
windows 1.8.2 one-click installer irb)
what kind of container is it where does it come from etc..
i did a conf.class and got an IRB::context what kind of class is that?
i did a
f=File.new('config.txt','w')
f.write(config) to get a text file of its contents but don't know about
it's contents

You've found the irb configuration class. You can configure a number
of features of irb with this. You can also read about it in the
Pickaxe Book, where it is documented pretty thoroughly.
