From: Wes Gamble Date: 2006-08-01T03:41:43+09:00 Subject: Re: Does Ruby need a "line separator" class? I was thinking about this a little more. Why wouldn't JRuby just take advantage of the Java runtime's normalization facility in this case, using the JVM's notion of "newline" on the particular platform to handle I/O? Is the JRuby issue that only _some_ of the code that is doing I/O is pure Java and some other set of the code is Ruby so that trying to always use the JVM "line separator" concept won't work?
