Uh, seems my email never arrived? This is what I had written: %w<delim><string><delim> == string.split(/\s+/) (maybe not exactly that regexp, but basically it's an array of the words--hence the w)
%<delim><string><delim> == string, but without needing to escape the quotes. It's the same as using %Q (ie, it understands escape sequences and interpolated expressions inside, while %q is a literal string) HTH -foca On Tue, Feb 3, 2009 at 5:52 PM, James Byrne <li...@ruby-forum.com> wrote: > David Chelimsky wrote: >> On Tue, Feb 3, 2009 at 1:10 PM, James Byrne <li...@ruby-forum.com> >> wrote: >>> James Byrne wrote: >>>> >>>> Thank you.
