I'm on a mac, and I used textedit to write the class, then copied and pasted but after ever def and many other lines after that it asked me Display all 319 possibilities? (y or n) so thats why i was curious if i should be able to or not...would you know why it does that? as for the help on the class thank you! i am coming from php and i started looking into ruby yesterday...so i'm still unsure of what is the same or different or what is allowed....But thank you.
