i'm writing a method within the Akill class that cascades down 2 sql
stmts inside some if and when stmts....but i get this when i added the
last branch of if stmts: what happened note : ALL 'end' stmts are
properly matched

I can't even tell what you are trying to do / write. It looks like
"freak out" in your world means "respond with everything when I hit
tab in a place without context" which is exactly what it should do.
If not, I suggest turning off tab completion first and trying again.

But beyond that, I still can't tell what you are trying to write. If
it is something like:

case scat
when scat == 'KWH' 1500
scat=='KVAR' 700
scat=='KWD' 0
end

then yup. You're going to get a syntax error as you did in your email
and that has nothing to do with IRB. Try it just using ruby -c -e
'...code...' for example to see. GIGO. See http://www.zens...
Languages/Ruby/QuickRef.html#23 for examples of how to write properly
formed case statements.

How do you turn off tab completion in IRB?

I prefer my gvim and my xterm, thank you very much. How do I turn off tab
completion in IRB?

irb -f --readline #ignore .irbrc file and load readline w/o tab
completion
irb --noreadline #disable readline altogether

It seems that I don't have a .irbrc, but I still have tab completion. I'd
like to have readline support but no completion, but I don't know what to
put in my .irbrc (or .inputrc) to disable this.

I figured it out. Somehow, at the end of
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/irb/completion.rb, I have the lines:

if Readline.respond_to?("basic_word_break_characters=")
Readline.basic_word_break_characters= " \t\n\"\\'`><=;|&{("
end
Readline.completion_append_character = nil
Readline.completion_proc = IRB::InputCompletor::CompletionProc

So I just put code in my .irbrc to undo it:
#disable completion, so that hitting tab just inserts a tab character
Readline.completion_append_character = ""
Readline.completion_proc = lambda {|x| x+"\t"}
