Message: [QUOTE="John Carter, post: 4522582"] Ruby is it's own macro preprocessor and it is way way way smarter and better than any other you have met. (Unless you have met Scheme hygienic macros) Say ri eval and ri class_eval and ri instance_eval The evils of eval can easily exceed the (relatively) minor sins of a preprocessor and will eventually eat you.
