I spend most time with IRB or Rails/console. These are good settings on which I have settled with over the time. These will allow you to have basic logging and IRB history. Just put these in the ~/.irbrc file (If file doesn’t exist then create one).

Do these settings go in the irb settings file? The post isn’t clear about what to *do* with all that text.
Thanks for pointing out. These goes in ~/.irbrc
On line 17 of the code preview your logic is:
result = !condition_a && !condition_b
From boolean algebra,
a’.b’ = (a + b)’
Reducing it in terms of boolean algebra, a more correct, and understandable statement could be
result = ! (condition_a || condition_b)
The statement would become:
irb_console_running = (rails_running or script_console_running) ‘
This is also more intuitive. 🙂
That is one way. If you like it you can change it in your.irbrc 🙂
