btw: such a term emulator would be useful for many other usages (e.g. python/django), not just ruby Yes, we know. There are works in progress by Ivan Soleimanipour, cf.: http://wiki.netbeans.org/TerminalEmulator This issue will likely depend on more general issue in "terminal emulator" component. Likely once the work by Ivan is done, there will not leave to much work for Python/Scala/Ruby/<language_of_your_choice> modules implementors. Works should restart once 6.5 is code-frozen and works on 7.0 starts again. Just wanted to comment that currently this is partially accomplished using the JRuby console (http://wiki.netbeans.org/FaqRubyJIRBInNetBeans61)-- however that doesn't work with Rails applications that are incompatible with JRuby (e.g. any that require native gems). So I hope the core of this feature (basic terminal emulation features like up-arrow history and output coloring) is accomplished without dependency on JRuby, even if some extra aspects (e.g. code completion) might be enabled by JRuby. *** Bug 152316 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** An experimental version of a terminal-based IOProvider is now available. Check out the terminal module. |
