purl, of #perl fame, has this to say about Ruby:
purl: I think Ruby is kinda cool or a cross between perl and python or
at http://www.netlab.co.jp/ruby/ or can also with third-party
modules use python objects within itself and evaluate perl code
by embedding an interpreter or DOESN'T WORK ON OpenBSD, DAMN IT
Damn it.
<playing around in dselect...> Oooh! A ruby-mode for emacs!
"Interactive Ruby". A ruby example package! mod_ruby for Apache!
eRuby for embedding in text files. gtk/imlib libraries for Ruby!
Lotta stuff for this plucky little language. Too bad its an
objectionable language (ie. Use objects or die)
