Colorized Wirble in windows xp

Wirble On windows:

Pre: Windows XP SP2, GEMS, RUBY.
(i got Rails 2.0.2, ruby in c:\ruby)

1. gem install wirble (or go to http://pablotron.org/software/wirble/ )
2. gem install win32console (or http://raa.ruby-lang.org/project/win32_console/ )
3. create "w.rb" file in /config/ folder (folder with environment.rb)
4. inside w.rb put this code:


#-- for wirble
require 'rubygems' rescue nil
require 'win32/console/ansi'
ENV['IRB_HISTORY_FILE'] = "c:\.irb_history"
# load rubygems and wirble
require 'wirble'

# load wirble
Wirble.init
Wirble.colorize
#--

5. save w.rb file

Now run your console
inside console write: require "w"
=> []

now u got wirblezed console.

notes:
1.change ENV['IRB_HISTORY_FILE'] = "" to any value you want where to store your history, can be global (C:\) or application separate, (in this case put "c:\my_rails_applications\my_new_project\logs\.irchistory"
2.dont make file "w.rb" as "wirble.rb" it will not works,

Finally BIG thanks and respect to Paul for this wonderful gem (dont want to use others)
