Subject: exception types

Hi,

Can anybody help me on the rescue clause? I tried to catch file not found 
error of file.open method, but I don't know what type of error to use in 
rescue clause. i tried to write nothing after rescue, it seems not catching 
the error. Further more:

1. where can I find a reference to different kind of runtime errors? It 
seems that there are no information on that (Exception Class?) in pickaxe...

2. in "rescue SyntaxError, NameError => boom", is => used to denote a hash? 
if so, why NameError is a hash? If not, maybe gavin can add this usage of => 
to the FunnySymbolsInCode FAQ...

Thanks,
Shannon
