I never had problems with the error messages in Ruby. But I do have had
problems with them in D. Example:
int a = 3
int b = 4;
The compiler will complain there's a missing semicolon on line 4 in
front of "int". The user has most likely forget to add the semicolon at
the end of the first line.
Notice that your comment is still relying on remaining redundancy to try
to figure out where the ; is supposed to go.
You need some kind of separation between the statements. In Ruby a
newline works as a statement separator.
