Umm, yes. Thanks. Was there anything else to this message besides the
URL? Note that I don't consider PLEAC to be anything like a Ruby
Cookbook. As a very quick cursive glance it looks much more to be Ruby
mimiking Perl...

I get the impression that that's the underlying goal of the project:

similarity and proximity to Perl as possible.

probably the pleac guys will accept more rubyish contruibutions, but the problems treated were thought for perl, and this reflects somewhat in the code (i.e "ruby -i" stuff)
