This gem adds a "pry" command to ruby-debug.
To see it in action, run ruby examples/foo.rb
and type "pry" at the debug prompt.
To use it in a project, add this to your Gemfile:
gem "ruby-debug-pry", :require => "ruby-debug/pry"
For more information on pry, read this article.
This has been tested on Ruby 1.8.7 p334 and Ruby 1.9.2 p136 and seems to work.
Future Steps
Right now I don't have any of the additional features that ruby-debug's IRB command has. I don't really use them, but it would be nice to have them.
