Pry VS pry-remote

that's surprising considering `pry`[1] is such an amazing debugger IMO.

All of my recent tutorials and projects were primarily managed using the default Ruby REPL, irb, and I must say it's been nothing short of amazing. However, what ultimately prompted me to switch to Pry was its offering of better defaults. But what exactly does that mean? Let me demonstrate:

For older versions: Pry Gem

To do that, I would install `pry` into your rails project and then use it look around right before your test fails.https://github.com/pry/pry

This means I can be editing a shell script and easily inject arbitrary regions into a shell buffer for immediate testing (point never leaves the window where I am editing, and I can view the shell output in an adjacent window). This is similar to what Robe does with Pry within an inferior Ruby process using comint.

https://pry.github.io/ - also a lot of features from Pry have made it into the default IRB these days, but I still use pry. I don't know the equivalent commands in IRB.

For debugging, while not multi-threaded, to my knowledge, is the pry gem for debugging. There are a few different flavors, for instance, my favorite is pry-byebug.

I've written Ruby for coming up on 20 years, so to be honest I haven't paid attention to what is written on that subject in recent years.

Bundler shouldn't be running inside a trap context, but you might be running into a situation where standard input/output from the actual process triggering your breakpoint has been redirected. In that case, ruby-debug[1] is a good option, as you attach to it from outside[2]. Basically, run "rdbg --open yourscript.rb" and then use rdbg -A from another terminal.

You use Pry remotely too[3] if you prefer.
