SSL http client code in Ruby?

Up to this point, I’ve been using S-Tunnel to proxy ssl
connections out; i.e., running S-Tunnel in client mode
and using a set of Ruby scripts to make SSL requests
through S-Tunnel.

Does anyone have information on SSL http client coding
in Ruby? I wish use SSL in Ruby directly.

I’ve looked in the Pickaxe and the Ruby Way book. I’ve
also looked in the ossl module (but somewhat lacking in
documentation).

Any help/hints/pointers would be greatly appreciated.
