Hijacking issues on an issue-tracking-system is really not the way to go.

Better open a new issue (or a new discussion topic) and place a link to it, if it's somehow related.

Feature #4824: Provide method Kernel#executed?
http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/4824

Author: Lazaridis Ilias
Status: Open
Priority: Normal

Category: core
Target version: 


The current construct to execute main code looks not very elegant:

if __FILE__ == $0
  my_main()          # call any method or execute any code
end

With a Kernel#executed? method, this would become more elegant:

if executed?
  #do this
  #do that
  my_main()
end

or

main() if executed?

This addition would not break any existent behaviour.
