I have a large file which lots of gibberish in and I'm trying to find
the meaningful sections.

Essentially I'll have something like this:

random data lines

random data lines

random data lines

random data lines

What I need to do is locate the line(s) where From is different from To.
In this case, the one From "1313132" To "1313133".

I don't know how to do this kind of match, but I assume that Ruby has a
way?

Is there is a way to get page as text (like curl in php) and parse it to
get needed info?
Also, I don't really know, is there is a way when getting url through
something like curl to enter user data in forms or activate javascript
on page (if there is authentication before showing page etc)?

Is there a way with *shoes* to have a windows that will "grow" according to
the information drop on it so the user does not have to scroll?

The stmt: Shoes.app :width => 900, :height => 720
creates a fix size windows. I would like to have the windows expand as
information is dropped on it.

Thank you

Hi,

Could anyone help me in writing a code which could replace file names
letters to lowercase and spaces to dashes? For example:

Ruby Forum to ruby-forum

Thanks.

This is perhaps a silly question.

My platform is:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation release 6.3 (Santiago)

# ruby -v
ruby 1.9.3p327 (2012-11-10 revision 37606) [x86_64-linux]

I installed shoes using the gem install command.

Hi all,

I'm new to Ruby and pretty new to programming in general. My limited
prior experience is with JavaScript, so I'm not accustomed to handling
file I/O or working with Unix/Terminal. I'm working on a script that
takes a large quantity of text copied from a web browser and does some
reformatting so the result lines up neatly in a CSV and eventually a
spreadsheet. Basically, I'm using a few regex/gsub statements to remove
unnecessary text from the beginning of the page and to add/remove tabs
from certain places. I've got two issues with this script, please see
the attached files.

1.

I use openssl in ruby and openssl in bash, but the first 16 bytes with
ruby/openssl are wrong, why ?

Is this a 'feature' of Ruby on windows?
I am trying to enter a long string (> 256 characters but generally <
512) in Ruby with:

puts "Enter long string"
ilogo = gets.chomp
puts ilogo

For some reason, it always truncates the input to keep only 256
characters (before chomp).
I verified that Ruby accepts longer strings, and that Windows 7 command
line console also accepts strings > 256 chars. I have seen that people
don't have the issue with MacOS, but others do have it with Windows XP.
I am running Win7.

So I'm building some Ruby releases I don't want it to build any docs
for.

When running configure, I already add --disable-install-doc.

However, since I have doxygen, configure notices that and adds it to be
built. I normally just quick edit the resulting Makefile and remove
doxygen.

However, is there a way to tell configure to --disable-doxygen or
something similar?

JRuby 1.7.4 Released - Thursday, May 16 2013

The JRuby community is pleased to announce the release of JRuby 1.7.4

Homepage: <a href="http://www.jruby.org/" title="http://www.jruby.org/">http://www.jruby.org/</a>
Download: <a href="http://www.jruby.org/download" title="http://www.jruby.org/download">http://www.jruby.org/download</a>

JRuby 1.7.4 is our fourth update release since JRuby 1.7.0. The primary
goal of 1.7 point releases is to fill out any missing compatibility issues
with Ruby 1.9.4. The community participation lately has been great.

Hello,

I'd like to know if do you consider safe upgrading all our programs to ruby 2.0. By now it's considered 'stable' and I'd like to keep up with 'current development' in order to avoid
issues that may arise from lagging too much behind. But do you or know if there are gem issues with ruby 2.0?

Hey Rubyians!

I am not used to joining online forum's and I am eager to join the Ruby
community. This is the first language I am learning and have a practice
problem that I cannot seem to get. Can you enlighten me? I'm looking
forward to learning from all of you!

Here is the question:

Write a method named lassy_sum(numbers) that takes an array of numbers.
lassy_sum should multiply each number in the array by its position in
the array, and return the sum.

I don't quite understand how to multiply each number in the array by its
position in the array. Any help will be greatly appreciated!

If i have a date time like this "2013-04-01T12:01:03-07:00"

how can i get a Time object in Ruby 2 without UTC added. i mean get
"2013-04-01 12:01:03"

Hi guys. Can you tell me why does this happen?

if 1.==(2)
c = 3
else
b = 5
end

defined?(c)
#=> "local-variable"

I was expecting nil, because the thread doesn't pass trough the second
line, 1 is not equal to 2. Seems that Ruby gives the value nil to c, so
Ruby creates the object in RAM, will be garbage collected after, of
course. Why does this happen? it is not a waste of resources?

I've never tried using this function before, but I am now using as part
of a code compilation build script (using 'make' on UNIX).

It looks something like this:

==================================

stdin, stdout, stderr = Open3.popen3( 'make codename' )
stdin.close

puts "Reading STDOUT"
outfile.puts stdout.read
stdout.close

==================================

I'm trying to get the output from the 'make' command (which is quite
large), so I can dump it to a file for later diagnostics.

However, when it gets to the stdout.read, it seems to hang (or at least
take so long I've never seen it fin

hi
Does anybody know something about any project that can reshape ruby
source code, making it shorter and/or harder to read? Of course it must
not alter the behaviour of the code.

If you scroll down on <a href="http://danieltosh.com/" title="http://danieltosh.com/">http://danieltosh.com/</a> you will see a countdown
timer, I'd like to know how to create one of these with Ruby, which will
be implemented onto my Rails application.

I've searched various sources to no avail, with that said - any
suggestions on how to create this sort of thing would be great!

thanks.

class C
def self.inherited(subclass)
puts "#{self} just got subclassed by #{subclass}."
end
end
class D < C
end

The limits of the inherited callback:

*Everything has its limits, including the inherited callback. When D
inherits from C, C is D’s superclass; but in addition, C’s singleton
class is the superclass of D’s singleton class. That’s how D manages to
be able to call C’s class methods. But no callback is triggered. Even if
you define inherited in C’s singleton class, it’s never called.*

can anyone help me what the lines above inside ** means?

I was writing a code,and doing so I got some unexpected result. Can
anyone point me by saying where I did wrong?

irb(main):001:0> a=["a","b","c"]
=> ["a", "b", "c"]
irb(main):002:0> a[-1].concat("j")
=> "cj"
irb(main):003:0> a<<a[-1].concat("j")
=> ["a", "b", "cjj", "cjj"]

My expected output is: ["a", "b", "c", "cjj"]

Thanks

Using VBA, the simplest way to get Outlook to add an email signature to
an email body is to use the mail "display" method.

However, because WIN32OLE uses method_missing to send commands, it seems
to be Object#display which is being triggered, simply displaying the
mail's object ID in the console.

Is there a way for me to get around this behaviour and get the correct
WIN32OLE method called? I had considered undefining Object#display, but
that seems like a rather dangerous thing to do.

Hi,

I just introduced one callback says

<a href="http://www.ruby-doc.org/core-2.0/Module.html#method-i-extend_object" title="http://www.ruby-doc.org/core-2.0/Module.html#method-i-extend_object">http://www.ruby-doc.org/core-2.0/Module.html#method-i-extend_object</a>.

extend_object(obj) → obj

But I am familiar with Module#extended hook. But not understood while
`Module#extended` we have,then why `Module#extend_object`?

Is there any difference between them?

Thanks

ruby 1.9.3
nokogiri 1.5.5

Say, a web page has a link,

<a href="http://example.com">reference</a>

I would like to get both the url and text, "http://example.com" and
"reference".

First, access to the page that contains this link.

doc = Nokogiri::HTML(open(url))

then,

name = doc.xpath('//div.../a').text
url = doc.xpath('//div.../a/@href).text

It works. But the problem is this is parsing twice separately.
If you want to apply the same procedure to many links that exist in a
single page, it seems inefficient.

Is there anyway to produce both url and text by single parse?
