Pry provides an enhanced REPL experience for Ruby. One of the enhancements it provides is the ability to open your preferred editor within a pry session. This makes it easy to compose and edit multi-line blocks of code.

Try it out by typing edit within a pry session. Once you are ready, you can save the file which will prompt pry to interpret the contents of your file within the context of the pry session.
