Hi, I always see the # notation in the docs to design instance_methods. Wouldn't it be nice to be able to use that notation to address and access methods directly ? MyClass#my_method would replace MyClass.instance_method(:my_method) and def MyClass#my_method end would replace class MyClass; def my_method end end Similarily, I was also thinking that :: could be used for class methods. What do you think ? The biggest drawback I see actually is that it would impose comments to have one space before. Like : MyClass#some comment #=> Error MyClass #some comment #=> All OK -- Cheers, zimbatm http://zimbatm.oree.ch
