Subject: [ruby-core:37843] [Ruby 1.9 - Feature #4985] Add %S[] support for making a list of symbols


Issue #4985 has been updated by Joel VanderWerf.


Wondering idly if the following could be parsed...

:[foo bar]

Eh, maybe it's too inconsistent with % notation anyway.

Feature #4985: Add %S[] support for making a list of symbols

I would like to add %S, which would create a list of symbols.

For example:

    %S[foo bar] # => [:foo, :bar]

I've attached a patch which implements this along with ripper events and tests.  Thanks to Josh Susser for thinking of this. :-)
