AWESOME! You da man!

Its working very nicely. It'd be great if one day we can figure out how to
do Java IDE style completion, where you can kinda keep typing and it filters
the list (like ajax completion of entry fields in rails); also linking to
the documentation like the emacs/vim stuff would rock too - but heck, its
already great.

It'd be great if it'd work inside, say, Rails controllers/models too rather
than self contained ruby scripts. I wonder if the user is in a Rails project
we could switch the 'ruby -I' stuff with 'script/console' (or something like
that - maybe a require 'config/boot' or something) so that working on a
rails project it would boot up the various rails plugins so that we'd get
lovely completion inside controllers & models? Will noodle around and see if
I can figure it out...
