In rails you can just do:

    class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
      around_filter :pry_rescue if Rails.env == 'development'

      def pry_rescue
        Pry::rescue{ yield }
      end

I'm hoping to get a Rack middleware out at some point; which will make this even easier.

Here's a basic middleware...

  pry_rescue.rb
  require 'pry/rescue'
  class PryRescue
    def initialize(app)
      @app = app
    end

    def call(env)
      Pry::rescue{ @app.call(env) }
    end
  end

For rails you need to require the file and use the middleware...

  application.rb
  config.middleware.use "PryRescue"

I know this is short and simple, but it still might be nice to wrap up in a gem. Or maybe work into the pry-rails gem?
