summary
Claims a pure‑Ruby replacement for GNU Readline called Reline exists and is being merged for Ruby 2.7, it implements Emacs and Vi bindings, reworks Unicode and emoji combining, and still needs test fixes; a new multiline console library Reidline powers a refreshed IRB that can show RDoc “ghost methods” (meta‑programmed methods) on tab completion; surprising housekeeping detail: current committer count hovers around 99; gem installs should stop using --no-document.
