A small project for playing around with a repl for ruby

repl_fun

This is just a small project I'm working on for fun to provide a less ugly repl than irb. It really shouldn't be used at all and it doesn't have the same features as irb either. For example:

iapetus:~/sandbox/repl_fun ruby repl.rb
My Ruby REPL
>> i = 1
i = 1 => 1
>> i + 1
undefined local variable or method `i' for main:Object
        repl.rb:10:in `eval'
        repl.rb:10:in `eval'
        repl.rb:10:in `block in <main>'
        repl.rb:5:in `loop'
        repl.rb:5:in `<main>'
>>

Otherwise, as long as each line is entirely independent, this works great! (I know that's useless. I'm working on it.)
