noob question about irb

rubyonrails-talk
1

hey guys,

can you spare some time?

i have this crazy thing with ruby.

when i enter irb and hit the return key, instead to run interactive ruby the shell gives me this :

radup@radup:~$ irb

Directory doc already exists, but it looks like it isn't an RDoc directory. Because RDoc doesn't want to risk destroying any of your existing files, you'll need to specify a different output directory name (using the --op <dir> option).

any idea how to make irb work?

many thx, radu

This is a Ruby question, not a Rails question. You'll want to ask on the Ruby list.

many thx, radu
