And that is why it works when you have a space. Then it looks like
a shift-left or append.
bash-2.05$ ruby -c

class Config

  def update
    ist <<l
  end

end

class Test
end

-:12: can't find string "l" anywhere before EOF
-:5: parse error, unexpected $, expecting tSTRING_CONTENT or tSTRING_DBEG or tSTRING_DVAR or tSTRING_END
