From: why the lucky stiff Date: 2003-07-27T04:30:10+09:00 Subject: [ANN] YAML in Five Minutes Perhaps you've heard that Ruby 1.8.0 now includes YAML support, but you're not exactly sure what YAML is or you don't want to spend the time reading the long documents at yaml.org. I'm starting a series of tutorials to help Ruby users learn YAML quickly. The first tutorial is a very basic primer titled "Yaml in Five Minutes." http://yaml.freepan.org/index.cgi?YamlInFiveMinutes The tutorial is five short pages long, each covering a single aspect of YAML in a minute's time. By the end, you should be able to construct beautiful YAML documents for your personal use. If you already know YAML, I would certainly appreciate suggestions for improvement. And if you have an idea for a tutorial or would like to add to the YAML wiki, go for it. Thank you. _why
