Hi folks, I come from a Python (and later, Perl) background and decided yesterday that I would learn Ruby in the next two months. As I understood so far, Ruby does not do bytecode compilation, am I right? Is this coming/planned/whatever? Sometimes I just want my source code file hidden/obscured, for fancyness and packaging. Is there a way to do this in Ruby. Btw, statements that have value in Ruby is one thing I prefer over Python's. Regards, Steve
