🔥 TIL you can type `edit path/to/a/file.rb` in Pry and it will open the file in your $EDITOR or whatever you have configured in your .pryrc file!
This is especially handy when you get an error in an external gem and want to quickly open that file to see what's going on. 🎉
ALT # If $EDITOR is "code --wait", you will want # to override it in your pry config file as # shown here to drop the --wait flag Pry.editor = "code" # defaults to $EDITOR
