Comment(by isaackearse@…):

 OK I think that might have been a bit ambitious, I made it as far as
 debugger.cpp but suddenly got very sleepy around here:
 https://github.com/MacRuby/MacRuby/blob/trunk/debugger.cpp#L184 :)

 Any hints are welcome, but I was thinking I might try a smaller feature to
 start with.  One of the features of ruby-debug I really like it is the
 :autoeval option which behaves much like irb.  This could work by passing
 the command-line option --autoeval to macrubyd and then catching and
 evaluating any unrecognised commands here:
 https://github.com/MacRuby/MacRuby/blob/trunk/bin/rubyd#L195

 How does that sound?
