== Description A ripl plugin that smooths the transition from irb by mocking out IRB. Safely captures all IRB calls and points to ripl equivalents for irb's commands and config options.

== Install Install the gem with:

sudo gem install ripl-irb

== Usage

From the commandline

$ ripl -rripl/irb

Or add to your ~/.riplrc

require 'ripl/irb'

When your mocked out IRB encounters a ripl equivalent, it prints a message:

# When encountering a IRB.config[:HISTORY_FILE]
Use Ripl.config[:history] instead of IRB.config[:HISTORY_FILE]

When you invoke an irb command, you'll get pointed to a similar ripl command:

>> context
See config() in ripl-commands plugin

To disable printing these messages:

Ripl.config[:irb_verbose] = false
