I believe console 2 defaults to shift + click and drag to select, and auto-copy on release. I do agree with the request for a better console in windows, though. * * * From: Ivan Porto C.

Thanks to Ivan for his work on ironruby-dbi! The steps are extrememly simple now. Assuming you have IronRuby installed and a Rails app you’d like to run on IronRuby: 1. Install Rake, Rails, and IronRuby SQLServer igem install rake rails ironruby-sqlserver 1. Add the following to the top of your app’s config/environment.rb: require ‘rubygems’ require ‘ironruby\_sqlserver’ 1. Connect to SQLServer in config/database.yml: development: mode: ADONET adapter: sqlserver host: YOURMACHINENAME\SQLEXPRESS database: app123\_development integrated\_security: true 1. Migrate the database and start the server: irake db:migrate ir script\server And that’s it! The documentation link above also has a walk through setting up IronRuby, Rails, and SQLServer, and shows a basic Rails “scaffold” running. Coming soon are updated instructions for running rack-based web applications in IIS on IronRuby.

Console2 is the first thing I install on a new machine. Yeah, a updated console in windows would be nice, but it’s not something I see changing in the future, so I’m fine using something that is good. ~Jimmy From: [removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid](mailto:removed_email_address@domain.invalid) [[mailto:removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid](mailto:removed_email_address@domain.invalid)] On Behalf Of Jim D.
