Console Version

• ls => PrintMembers

• less-paging
  • show-doc
  • show-source
  • long output
• awesome_print for arrays/hashes

• silencing command output (all commands, or anything ending in ;)

• pastie/gist your output

• ; before a command executes it in the shell

  • special case for cd => FileUtils.chdir to change PWD

• ? => show-doc

• Out history (like ipython)

• .method calls _.method

• less visual noise
  • verbose mode (shows extra output)

    • cd tells you it changed objects

• object history (lets you go back to previously pried objects)

• .lstrip commandline input

GUI Version

• multiline input (quassel style)
  • shift-enter adds a new line
  • enter commits
  • up/down arrows navigate history, and move in multiline commands (if you arrow past the top of a multiline command, it goes to the previous command in the history)
• sidebar for "scratch variables" (like matlab)

Resources/Inspiration

• bpython

• ipython

• reinteract

• fresh (a ruby-enhanced shell)
