The command history on Windows when running ir.exe is being provided by the
Windows console subsystem; it''s not actually part of IronRuby. I
imagine that Mono''s readline library could be used to give the same
effect on non-Windows platforms.

Subject: [Ironruby-core] ir / iirb on Mono
Hi All,
I''ve noticed problems with iirb and ir interactive mode on my Mac.
I''m running the 1.0-rc2 build.
With ir, I''ve noticed two things:
1) The up arrow does not scroll through the command history. This works on
Windows.
2) the first character doesn''t appear, though is processed, for each
line. For example, if I open a new ir session and type ''puts
"Hello, World"'' the console shows:
>>> uts "Hello, World"
but if I hit return, the command is processed just fine. It''s literally
just the first character - I often end up hitting space then backspace or
something else before typing and then it is fine.
With iirb, I''m getting an exception just trying to run it:
cory-foys-macbook-pro:~ foyc$ iirb
IronRuby.Libraries:0:in `GetExecutable'': infocmp -C (Errno::ENOENT)
from IronRuby.Libraries:0:in `CreateProcess''
from IronRuby.Libraries:0:in `CreateProcess''
from :0:in ``''
[Stack Trace truncated]
Running infocmp -C produces:

I''m happy to look into both of these, but wanted to see if anyone else
was seeing this before I did (or was looking at it already).
