Re: [Rubycocoa-talk] How to integrate an irb console?

[Tim B. <tim...@gm...>]

Alberto,

You may have built a console of your own by now, but if you're still
looking for one, I have an embedded Ruby console that I've been using
for a few months. I spent some time cleaning it up last week and
finally think it's in good enough shape to share.

It's described in an article that I posted today:
  http://www.rubycocoa.com/mastering-cocoa-with-ruby

The console runs in the same thread as the rest of the application, so
you will mainly want to use it to create and configure objects
(long-running calls will lock up your app), but because it's in the
same thread, you won't have to worry so much about crashing the
AppKit.

It's a lot of fun to use, and it's an amazingly helpful tool for
learning Cocoa.

Tim

p.s. Jonathan's advice on how to do this was right on target.
