I have a Ruby script that translates a lot of Python’s syntax into Ruby,  
but beyond what it does, you still have to manually check and modify the  
results into true Ruby. I found it very helpful as I tried to port FIT  
from Python to Ruby (a project I never finished, so I’m glad Dave did  
it).
