Great thanks!

I’m noticing that iirb is hanging indefinitely on OSX. Fixing the line  
endings allows ir to work fine, but iirb just hangs. Killing it shows it  
is in ReadInternal:

cory-foys-macbook-pro:bin foyc$ ./iirb  
mscorlib:0:in `ReadData': Thread was being aborted (System::Threading::ThreadAbortException) from mscorlib:0:in `ReadInternal’  
from mscorlib:0:in `Read' from /Users/foyc/Workspace/ironruby1.0rc3/bin/../lib/ruby/1.8/irb/input-method.rb:49:in `gets’  
from  
/Users/foyc/Workspace/ironruby1.0rc3/bin/../lib/ruby/1.8/irb/input-method.rb:49:in  
`gets' from /Users/foyc/Workspace/ironruby1.0rc3/bin/../lib/ruby/1.8/irb.rb:132:in `eval\_input’

I’ve waited 3-4 minutes before killing it, as I know the iirb is slow to  
start up on my Windows box as it is.

It’s hanging on the call to $stdin.gets. That works fine from an ir  
session on my Windows box, but on OSX, it allows me to enter two  
characters and then returns:

> > > cmd = $stdin.gets  
> > > =\> “he”  
> > > puts cmd  
> > > he  
> > > =\> nil
