The author of this issue should have at least payed attention to use correct punctuation when discussing punctuation. This proposal is very unconvincing. ---------------------------------------- Feature #16495: Inconsistent quotes in error messages https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/16495#change-98017 * Author: Kolano (Kenneth Kolano) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * Assignee: matz (Yukihiro Matsumoto) ---------------------------------------- Error messages use inconsistent pairs of quotes, for instance: ``` -e:1:in `
': undefined local variable or method `foo' for main:Object (NameError) ``` where a back tick is used on the left-hand side, and a single quote is used on the right. The same quotes should be used on either side of the elements being quoted. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe:
