Just one question. But it really asks: what is Ruby about? It would seem you need to learn the basics; in particular, the basics of OOP (Object Oriented Programming). Perhaps some other participants in this mailing list will feel up to posting an explanation of what OOP is, but it's too big a topic for me. All I can do is recommend you obtain copies of these two books: David Flanagan, Yukihiro Matsumoto: The Ruby Programming Language (ISBN-10: 0596516177 ISBN-13: 978-0596516178) Dave Thomas et al., Programming Ruby: The Pragmatic Programmers' Guide (ISBN-10: 0974514055 ISBN-13: 978-0974514055) Regards, Morton
