An interesting foray into recursion, I had no idea how to interpret that 
error, but now have some idea :)

Keeping in mind that I'm a beginner ruby-ist, how should I go about 
creating a manifest for a java jar?  I believe there's an "automatic" 
option, but I'm not positive.

Does it make sense to create a text file from within ruby, then "include" 
that text file as the manifest when doing the jar command?  Seems mildly 
fragile.  IIRC ant automagically takes care of the manifest, so perhaps 
I'll have to create something like that.

I know of raven, but prefer to do it this way for now, it's a good 
impetus to learn some ruby!



thanks for the help,
