Subject: [newbie] "Printing" a class

Hi!

I would like to know if it's possible to "dump" how a class looks like.

E.g.

class Hello
     def initialize(name)
         @name = name
      end
end

[... lots of code here, and then I reopen the Hello class]

class Hello
     def say_hello
         puts @name
     end
end



Now what I would like to do is have a way to peek into exactly what  
this class looks like. I.e., I wanna do something that gives me this  
kind of output:

"class Hello
     def initialize(name)
         @name = name
      end

     def say_hello
         puts @name
     end
end"



Thanks a bunch for the help :)
Rob
