Wiki FAQ

A very basic tail -f implementation
45639 [djberge@v5 h] I've been playing with a Ruby implementation of the *nix 'tail' command. Here's
45681 [pbrannan@at ] I have an implementation of tail -f that looks similar, except it
45685 [djberge@qw s] I guess to truly imitate the *nix tail -f command, it should read the 10

Style question
45684 [michael_s_ca] Is there an accepted standard as to when to use {} vs do/end?
+ 45686 [hal9000@hy e] The nearest thing to a standard is this
+ 45801 [jim@fr ez .o] I personally like the {} for the simple reason that it is easy
+ 45838 [michael_s_ca] This has been my thought as well. Too, coming from a c/C++/Java
| 45844 [gunnar.ander] Style issues like this define the feel of a language, but
+ 45852 [ned@bi e- om] Note that matchit will also let you bounce between e.g. do/end pairs
| 45853 [gsinclair@so] What's really unfortunate, though, is that Vim has some killer features
| + 45855 [jim@fr ez .o] I decided some time ago not to be a slave to the language, but
| | + 45856 [hal9000@hy e] I'll certainly agree with you on the tabs. I know that
| | + 45908 [alwagner@tc ] This is fine if you do not expect to share your code with others who choose
| | 45909 [jim@fr ez .o] My experience is that 99% of people use mixed tabs and spaces.

| | | + 45704 [pbrannan@at ] I see little advantage to doing this, since the function still has to
