I don't mean to beat a dead horse ... thanks for the pointers on those eqivalents ... but I'm more curious about eqivalents to the Enumerable, Array, Range, Hash, String, Forms etc... Not that I use all of that anyways. Typically I only find myself using about 5% of all that extra baggage. I generally use each and find the most. I can really see how a set of officially supported plugins for String manipulation and Forms and such will come in handy. I usually just dig through the source myself to find these answers and I think that will be best. Perhaps I'll throw some documentation for myself and others on my findings.

Thanks for the quick responses. I'm actually on vacation right now and my wife is giving me the evil eye ... so back to my vacation I go. :)

Yes, that's one of the things we're working on - getting the build
system to auto-generate documentation and test cases for plugins too.
