Subject: Re: using the current method name within current method

As much as I'd like to take credit for knowing its superior speed, I
can't as I stole it from Aleks. :)

However, I did know that $1 wasn't a true global in the sense of the
term, but a magic variable specific to the regexp test. It's commonly
acceptable, and, hey, if it's faster, why not, right?

A side note: this is one of the first things I've worked with that I
decided to make into something that was includable.... It's a
milestone in my way of thinking and coding with Ruby! Yay! (Sorry, had
to tell someone!)

Cheers!
