rbenv use rbx

This rbenv plugin allows easier switching between Ruby versions without having to keep patchlevels in mind.

Pro tip: Alias rbenv to rvm to ease transition. The --global option is aliased to --default exactly for that purpose.

Usage examples

Switch current shell to latest stable JRuby:

rbenv use jruby

Switch to whatever would be default (global or local):

rbenv use default

Make latest stable 1.9.3 global default and switch to using it:

rbenv use 1.9.3 --global

Make whatever the current Ruby is the global default:

rbenv use current --global

Make whatever the current Ruby is the local default:

rbenv use current --local

Make whatever the local Ruby is the global default:

rbenv use local --global

Use 2.0 development version:

rbenv use 2.0

Use rbx development version:

rbenv use rbx
