Hey,

In Ruby, constants are identified by a capital letter at the beginning of its 
name, and that is why a NameError exception is raised. 
If this Objective-C constant is available to you, I don't think it would be 
available as a local variable in MacRuby.

Maybe MacRuby encapsulates this data in a class somewhere - I have no idea  - 
Sorry :-)

Thanks,
Rob
