I have tried everything I can think of to get this to work, to no avail so here I am requesting suggestions on how to debug. Firstly, runnning Ubuntu 11.10 Installed rvm: <pre><code>$ bash < <(curl -s https://raw.github.com/wayneeseguin/rvm/master/binscripts/rvm-installer) </code></pre> Installed readline using apt-get: <pre><code>$ sudo apt-get install libreadline-dev </code></pre> Check for readline install: <pre><code>$ dpkg --get-selections | grep readline lib64readline-gplv2-dev install lib64readline5 install libreadline-dev install libreadline5 install libreadline6 install libreadline6-dev install readline-common install </code></pre> Install ruby, with readline support? <pre><code>$ rvm install 1.9.2 --with-readline-dir=/usr </code></pre> Here is rvm version: <pre><code>$ rvm --version rvm 1.9.2 by Wayne E. Seguin (wayneeseguin@gmail.com) [https://rvm.beginrescueend.com/] </code></pre> Lets try the ruby shell: <pre><code>$ irb 1.9.2 :001 > puts "add history" add history => nil 1.9.2 :002 > ^[[A^[[A^[[A^[[A^[[A <------ PRESS UP ARROW DOES THIS </code></pre> No, ok so if its not going to work with ubuntu's readline version??? lets try with rvm's own version of readline: <pre><code>$ rvm pkg install readline Fetching readline-5.2.tar.gz to /home/keith/.rvm/archives % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 100 1989k 100 1989k 0 0 318k 0 0:00:06 0:00:06 --:--:-- 418k Extracting readline-5.2.tar.gz to /home/keith/.rvm/src Applying patch '/home/keith/.rvm/patches/readline-5.2/shobj-conf.patch'...

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
