Strictly speaking, print, puts, gets, etc., aren't keywords; they are methods of the Kernel module, as well as of class IO. I'm not saying syntax-coloring of those words wouldn't be handy, but Bare Bones is on firm ground in not showing them as keywords. If it really bothers you, you could write your own codeless language module for Ruby (chapter 15 of the manual). Which is a pain, I admit. Maybe better, maybe slower, write to <[email protected]> and ask them to include some common method names in the "predefined names" for Ruby. — F -- Fritz Anderson -- Xcode 3 Unleashed: Now in its second printing -- <http://x3u.manoverboard.org/ > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BBEdit Talk" group.
