  step.=(0)

But do you really want to do that?

The setters don't bother me so much. And I actually like seeing the
self sometimes b/c it gets highlighted by my editor. Aside however, I
really hate having to type 'self.class', I'd much prefer Ruby add an
alias #object_class along the lines of #object_id.
