Its been over an year I was toying with this idea. Have been thinking ways to make it elegant. I really feel this surpasses what I had dreamed off. Frankly, I had never used ActiveSupport, just knew it as a part of Rails. Seeing it can be used like this is also great.
So, I was testing this extensively and I noticed something - its quite slow; I know its not a surprise. But while discussing with a few friends many pointed that its not exactly because of the time to execute the commands but its the time to initiate the process. If then, I was wondering if we could somehow have a REPL kind of environment running in the background and have the output passed into the terminal almost instantly? I would assume the overhead to be minimal and for people who uses this often, it may well be justified. Thoughts?
