Subject: Re: Request for Block local methods, and Proc syntax

So I thought about your code snippet a bit more Robert, and it's almost 
what I need. Which is, the ability to access the local scope, but also 
have access to the methods that are granted by the html-do-end method.

so in your example, you can now do this:

html do
  image(@source)
end

but you still can't do something this:

html do
  @code = retrieveCode
end
puts @code <-- doesn't work, because this is a different @code than the 
one you assigned to.

I got around this by writing all the instance variables in "context" out 
again at the end of the block. But it's not a very clean solution.

Is there anyway to retrieve the current block from within the block?
ie...

block = lambda do
  //bla bla bla
  //how does a block refer to itself?
end

Thanks
  -Patrick
