Oh, I forgot to present the current output:

xmp = "can't handle comments"
    #=> nil
a = [1,2,3]
    #=> nil
# in block it tries to evaluate
    #=> nil

# anyway it's quite a hack,
    #=> nil
# there's no hope I'm going to fix it, 
    #=> nil
# I decided after 5 minutes of pure amaze :)
    #=> nil

Which makes me wonder if I took patch agains one of my misbehaving patches.
Anyway the docs and the code after 'if __FILE__' thing are usable.
