No command ''def'' found, did you mean:
 Command ''df'' from package ''coreutils''
(main)
 Command ''ref'' from package ''elvis-tools''
(universe)
 Command ''gdef'' from package
''firebird2.1-classic'' (universe)
 Command ''gdef'' from package
''firebird2.0-super'' (universe)
 Command ''gdef'' from package
''firebird2.1-super'' (universe)
 Command ''gdef'' from package
''firebird2.0-classic'' (universe)
def: command not found

any idea what i should do??

radu

Are you sure you''re in irb?  It looks like you''re just at the
shell prompt.

You need to type irb first to start it.
