note Zoogie I've been interested in learning Ruby, especially since I'm studying programming languages. The particular features of the language that interest me are the smooth (imo) object handling and string handling. I need to find a project (and the time) to sit down and actually put Ruby to use, though...<p> For those who have not heard of Ruby, the <a href="http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/">Ruby Home Page</a> is a good place to start. Also, for FreeBSD users, there are already <a href="http://www.freshports.org/search.php3?stype=name&query=ruby&search=1">quite a few</a> Ruby resources available in the Ports collection. <p>- Zoogie <!-- footpad: Added words to the title, per NTC voting --> <P><small>Edit: [footpad], ~Tue Nov 20 14:51:29 2001 (UTC)</small></P> 37970 38599
