long time no see...

Well, it's been a while... The reason is pretty simple, I am now a OSX user (MacBookPro). Nice. But getting used to this box and customizing it, so that I feel comfi and quick took loooooooog (longer, then I expected). Just to list some of my favorite tweaks/impediments:
  • cut & paste in Finder.app with appleScript
  • getting used to vim (again)
  • configuring Butler.app (a Pipe is CMD+< now, just as it has been on my windows box; CMD+ß is a backslash, .,,)
  • cintch, typinator, ...
  • and some more

Regarding my previous post: no, there is no bug. Hashes are ordered since ruby 1.9, which might appear weird. Well, accessing the keys of a hash by querying the value is weird too (nevertheless, it is build-in and "supported").

The german forum was kind of helpful. Mostly as it helped me to figure out which documentation comes from where. This encouraged me to contact the rubydoc mailing list. See http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.ruby.documentation/1171. When I am "grown up" I will submit a documentaton-only patch to ruby so that the confusing/incomplete documentation is enhanced...
