README.md

IRB implemented in single line of ruby code:

$ ruby i.rb

> a = "Simple"

=> Simple

> b = "IRB"

=> IRB

> a + ' ' + b

=> Simple IRB

> IO.read($0)

=> until(puts(%Q[=> #{eval("#{print('> ')}#{gets.chomp}")}])) do end

> exit

$

No exception handling, no line navigation, no history, no multi-line support :-(

i.rb
until(puts(%Q[=> #{eval("#{print('> ')}#{gets.chomp}")}])) do end
