Hi all, I've noticed that for some methods in some gems, it's necesarry to pass arguments like this: method( :arg1 => value, :arg2 => value, :arg3,...) I use the syntax the same way in the examples and it works, but I'd like to know what Ruby's doing under there. What is the : and the => for anyway? Thanks for any info. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
