| Ah-ha! In that case, you want to use attributes
| 
|   class Foo
| 
|     attr_accessor :setting1, :setting2
| 
|     def initialize
|        @setting1 = 2
|        @setting2 = 5
|     end
|   end
| 
|   c = Foo.new
| 
|   p c.setting1 + c.setting2
| 
|   c.setting2 = 7
| 
|   p c.setting1 + c.setting2

Doesn't that work only in modules?  I can't find 'attr_accessor'
and others anywhere except in the Module class.
