Hi. What I'd like to do is to take a file like so: --- Apple Color: Red Peel: Yes Has Core: Yes Orange Color: Orange Peel: Yes Has Core: No --- and go through it, line by line, assigning the 'Apple' and 'Orange' lines to a name attribute on different hashes, and then using the name before the colons such as 'Color' and 'Peel' as keys for the respective values. I'm just asking for a bit of help and guidance, as I'm still not very keen on using regular expressions that comfortably and all. Thanks to anyone who helps!
