Description bruparel 2008-01-29 17:19:49 UTC 
I am on Windows platform with NetBeans 6.0, InstantRails 1.7.  The following link describes how to enable NetBeans 6.0 
to create an IRB Console window.
http://wiki.netbeans.org/FaqIRBWithNativeRuby
I followed the instructions to create an IRB window.  It worked.  However, the IRB console window that opens up seems 
to freeze initially and constantly echos everything that you enter.  The alignment is not proper either.  
Functionality wise, it works correctly though

Umm, I do not know much about this feature. It was done by Tor. I'll take a look at it, but not sure when. Having tons
of other task now.

Since we switched to JRuby 1.1 RC2 we are not using jirb_swing anymore and we are now using native 'irb' or JRuby 'jirb'
(depending on the project context) instead. See also issue 129944.
Let us know if you hit any problems in 6.1, thanks.
