Well I do'nt have control over the format of the files... I'll try to look into the parser thing... the thing is this is the first time I do any real coding so I don't even know what to look for in the ruby libraries to help me with this... What modules are out there that can help me or what are some keywords I should use to search for this. And are there any ruby parsers out there that I can look at? And this seems like a complex project... am I taking on too big of a project for a beginner? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
