How do I get each key (they are words /strings) to output on a new line in
this example?

File::open(title + '.htm', 'w') do |f|
hash.keys.each {|s| f.puts s}
......other stuff
end

-this results in all keys on one line

I've tried:
dict.keys.each {|s| f.puts s "\n"}
dict.keys.each {|s| f.puts s"\n"}
dict.keys.each {|s| f.puts ("#{s} \n"}
dict.keys.each {|s| f.puts s + " \n"}
dict.keys.each {|s| f.puts s + '\n'}
dict.keys.each {|s| f.puts s + \n}
etc ad nauseum

Sorry for asking such a simplistic question....

Since it looks like you are trying to output an html file maybe replace the "\n" with "<br/>" or surround the entire block of test in
<pre></pre> tags might work?
