Equivilent to '-w'? 1

[stillflame]

in perl, you can use '-w' on the command line to enable warnings, and you can use 'use strict' to make the compiler look for more errors.
i remember something like these for ruby, but i cannot find what it was. if anybody else knows, i'd be happy with that knowledge (well, if anybody ever visits this forum...) "If you think you're too small to make a difference, try spending a night in a closed tent with a mosquito."

 

[stillflame]

well, i feel pretty lame... the directive is '-w'...

here's another: what the equivalent to 'use strict'? "If you think you're too small to make a difference, try spending a night in a closed tent with a mosquito."

but i still don't know: what the equivalent to 'use strict'? "If you think you're too small to make a difference, try spending a night in a closed tent with a mosquito."

If you check out this page, it looks like there is no 'use strict' equivalent for Ruby (yet). See #U006 and #U007.

thanks.

( :-D someone else looks at this forum!) "If you think you're too small to make a difference, try spending a night in a closed tent with a mosquito."

Now we are in trouble. I'm the forum's 'Top Expert' and I've never even written anything in Ruby. Maybe your post on the newsgroup will attract some more knowledgable posters?

LOL
yeah, hope so. i've actually just started my first project in Ruby, to port the perl module Lingua::LinkParser over to ruby. so far it's working out well, not that it works yet "If you think you're too small to make a difference, try spending a night in a closed tent with a mosquito."
