No. > Thanks Hey, no problem. :) Seriously, patterns are often language-specific. the GoF book is typically cited, but patterns for Java/C++ do not always apply in Ruby. There is (to my knowledge) no Patterns for Ruby book (though it would not surprise me if someone is signing a publishing contract at this very moment), but a Smalltalk patterns book might help. -- James Britt "Simplicity of the language is not what matters, but simplicity of use." - Richard A.
