Vim like ruby interpreter?

ruby-talk

being a vimmer and a newbie to ruby I have come across the need for the
following. I ‘irb’ like creation with vim editing (maybe like bash’s set -o
vi). Hints? Leads? Links?

TIA

Compile irb with readline, create file ~/.inputrc and put
set editing-mode vi
Then set envar INPUTRC=~/.inputrc
Enjoy “irb --readline”
