Hello, I have problems when I debug, buy only with a Laptop with XP Home
Edition
Here is my problem: when I debug I cann hot print @, [ ] {.... special
characters.
(see attached image)
I have been looking for solutions in google... but I only found some
similar issues about the ruby console (IRB), this is another problem but
already solved, and nothing about debugging.
Does anybody know anything about it
thanks in advance
sorry for my english, now, i'm going to put this in spanish forum

Hello Albert,
The issue you're facing is related to extended escape codes/sequences
shown in international keyboards.
Based in your last comment, I assume you have an spanish keyboard.
Depending on the version of Ruby you're using, you should generate a
file named ".inputrc" and store it in your profile/HOME folder.
The file should look like this:
"M-[": "["
"M-]": "]"
"M-{": "{"
"M-}": "}"
"M-\": "\"
"M-|": "|"
"M-@": "@"
"M-~": "~"
You can learn more about this here:
Also, I recommend you install RubyInstaller "preview2" version (soon
will be RC1)
That specific distribution of Ruby uses a pure-ruby version of the
readline library, which works across keyboards without the issue shown
in your case.
HTH,

Hi, I saw this link of peter krantz, but doesn't work. And in windows, I
can't create a file without name (.inputrc) so I created "inputrc" and
another "inputrc.inputrc", but doesn't work either.
Yes you can. You can't do it with (Right Click)->New but you can open
Notepad and save a file called .inputrc
···
So I think there isn't solution, maybe wait for de "preview2" you said
thanks
