Summary: FXRI/IRB - Shift + Backspace crashes help viewer

Initial Comment:
Introduction:

This pertains to FXRI on the default Windows XP Pro installation of Ruby 1.8.5

Commentary:

Discovered quite by accident, due to my fumble fingered nature, but if one holds \
shift while performing a backspace on a typo or other text, the line is cleared.  The \
next time the user hits "enter" the program crashes and dissapears.


Steps to reproduce:

1.  Open FXRI
2.  Type some random text.
3.  Hold shift and press backspace ( <-- )
4.  (Optional) Continue by typing more random text.
5.  Press Enter/Newline

Observed:

At step 3, the line will dissapear, including the prompt.  At step 5, the FXRI GUI \
vanishes.

Expected:

Obviously this shouldn't happen.  A shift+backspace should yield removal of an entire \
word, just a letter at the very least, or nothing at all.
