[Rock-dev] roby shell

[Chris Mueller]

Hi,

I have only two questions about the roby shell provided by each 
supervision (./scripts/shell):

1) For some weeks ago the shell couldn't be used because of some changes 
in orocos.rb.
Is it currently fixed in our latest version on branch: master? If i try 
to start it, i always
get an error message shown in the end of this mail. (We also override 
our droby ports and
local process server in our setup, but i removed it temporarely in order 
test the shell).

2) Does anyone currently know the commands for reloading all properties 
and deployments at runtime in the supervision
usable via the shell? If it's not currently implemented, it would be 
also great to provide a help command
in the shell for showing all current utility methods :] or some hints on 
the website.

Chris
