Ruby on Rails

Geez, Marnen,

I don't see why people on a list focused on the most famous Ruby app
would view it beneath themselves to address a fundamental Ruby
question.

Incidentally, my question is, in fact, related to a Rails - a Rails
application. My client for the Rails app wants to change a bunch of
the app's field names. This is a job for a machine, say
ActiveScaffold, for example. However, despite the documentation from
ActiveScaffold.com and folks in the ActiveScaffold newsgroup, I still
don't have that running.

Hence, I wrote my own tool (in Ruby, of course), which I hope to
finish by tomorrow. But it's gotten complicated, which led to try
introducing Ruby Debug rather than puts debugging statements. For
this purpose, I was guided by Ruby Cookbook, O'Reilly, 2006.

I thought the RoR community might be sympathetic to a poor soul trying
to build a Rails-app administration tool.

Best wishes,
Richard
