Sophrinix / TryRuby

Try Ruby is a interactive shell that quickly and whimsically teaches the Ruby programming language. Originally _why's idea, it has been recreated from the ground up by Rubyists who have a passion for Ruby and for teaching their fellow (wo)man how to program.

Cannot backspace #142

Open ghost opened 13 years ago

ghost commented 13 years ago

As a developer, writing code requires the backspace button. So it would be very useful to have such a feature in TryRuby because it involves writing code.

I have this issue as well. Just in case it is not a universal issue, my OS is OS X 10.6. 7 and I am using Chrome 11.0.696.68

ghost commented 13 years ago

I'm on Windows 7 x64 with Chrome 11.0.696.68.

pbdeuchler commented 13 years ago

Same issue, with the same system as Vectorist

nickradford commented 13 years ago

Yeah, same here. If I can figure out why, I may try to get a pull request approved.

medinarrior commented 13 years ago

Same here... I'm on Fedora 14 (2.6.35.13-92.fc14.i686) with Google Chrome 12.0.742.100

Another one on chrome. I had to use (gasp) IE to get backspace to work! This does not bode well for Ruby!

Windows 7 x64 Chrome 12.0.742.100

Yes, chrome doesn't seem to work quite right. I figured out how to work around it: you can use the left arrow and then backspace acts like delete (delete doesn't do anything).

Confirmed that it's a Chrome issue. I see it in Ubuntu 11.04 w/ Chrome 12.0.742.112

ghost commented 13 years ago

For the time being I think there ought to be a warning on the site that it does not work in Chrome.
