[ANN] rib 0.9.1 released

Rib

by Lin Jen-Shin (godfat)

CHANGES from 0.9.0:

• [extra/autoindent] Autoindent plugin help you indent multiline editing. Note: This plugin is depending on readline_buffer, thus GNU Readline.

• [ripl] After require 'rib/ripl', ripl plugins should be usable for rib.

• [rib] Introduce ENV['RIB_HOME'] to set where to store config and history. By default, it’s ~/.rib now, but it would first search for existing config or history, which would first try to see ~/.rib/config.rb, and then ~/.rib/history.rb. If Rib can find anything there, then RIB_HOME would be set to ~/.rib, the same goes to ~/.config/rib. In short, by default RIB_HOME is ~/.rib, but the old ~/.config/rib still works.
