Subject: [ruby-talk:7124] ruby code to generate menus

Hi guys,

I have some code dynamically generate a menu tree in ruby.

The example is at:
http://boromir.vpop.net/~joe/menu.cgi?action=url7

The class code is at:
http://boromir.vpop.net/~joe/menu.txt

the driver is at:
http://boromir.vpop.net/~joe/menucgi.txt

The idea is that the thing that parses the tree will be heavy, and
the renderer will be light (think fastcgi or modruby -- parse once
render many times.).  so parse_tree is compute intensive but print_tree is
not.

So my question is, what do you think of the basic algorithm?  If it
passes muster, is this something I should clean up and put on RAA?

If not, let me have it, I have thick skin. :-)

thanks,
