From: Ryan Leavengood Date: 2006-05-10T14:05:37+09:00 Subject: Re: Intantiating a class by name No offense to the OP, but this is about the 5th time this has been asked by Ruby Forum users in the last few weeks. Ruby Forum REALLY, REALLY needs a FAQ with answers to questions like this. FYI all Ruby Forum users: when you ask your questions they are sent not just to Ruby Forum but to the ruby-talk mailing list, which has probably thousands of subscribers. Ryan
