Seems like no one read my first post to this thread. I don;t think they are doing anything different from this except providing a way to wrap then into a "using case". Hence this is nothing more then define_method( 'jcode$chop' ) do ... end And then #using prefixes subsequent method calls. While it is nice in it simplicity, I do not beleive it constitues a complete namespace selector solution. T.
