Input/Output to IRB using Pipes

Ruby
1

Hi,

I have a situation where I need to create a pipe into which I load
ruby/irb
commands.
Then I have to direct input from this pipe to IRB (Interactive Ruby) .
Also I will have an output pipe to which the irb results/output are
redirected to.

Thus I am changing the STDIN/STDOUT of IRB to Input/Output to/from pipe.

Please suggest ways by which I can do this…

Thanks in advance,

Narayanan

Are ‘irbtkw.rbw’ and ‘tktextio.rb’ useful?
Those exist on “ext/tk/sample” directory of Ruby’s source tree.
