i heard the same in perl world but my coworkers finally gave a try to my
coding style: want to write code as natural as possible must serve
readability and avoid errors. It doesn't in this case: 

you can't see the error immediatly in this code 

options = {
    :registry_dir => '/usr/share/vim/registry' ,
    :source_dir � => '/usr/share/vim/addons' ,
    :system_dir � => '/var/lib/vim/addons'
    :target_dir � => File.join(ENV['HOME'], '.vim') ,
    :query � � � �=> false,
    :system_wide �=> false,
}

you'll do in this one

options =
{ :registry_dir => '/usr/share/vim/registry' 
, :source_dir � => '/usr/share/vim/addons' 
 :system_dir � => '/var/lib/vim/addons' 
, :target_dir � => File.join(ENV['HOME'], '.vim') 
, :query � � � �=> false
, :system_wide �=> false
}
