File add-alias_methods.patch added I'm proposing patch on [ruby-dev:45068] ---------------------------------------- Feature #5361: Lice? https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/5361 Author: Thomas Sawyer Status: Open Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: core Target version: 2.0.0 Err... why is there a new String method for getting the lice of bytes? 'hello'.byteslice(2, 2) # => "ll" I don't like getting lice ;) (In other words what happened to good old readable underscores?) -- http://redmine.ruby-lang.org
