Thank you very much for this handy little tips.
Nice tips! I see you still using ruby 1.8.6 there…
John, Yeah. It’s what shipped with my MacBook, if I remember correctly.
These are great video tips! Thank you for putting them out there.
Nice! I’m glad to see this, and despite having fairly decent text-surgery skills, I haven’t been using most of these integration features.
One minor point: in the video, when you cut the block args and pasted them after the ‘do’, you could’ve highlighted the text (plus one of its surrounding spaces) and used Ctrl+Cmd+arrows to move it all a few characters to the right.
…in fact, that could be another tip. ;>
This series is great Derek. Keep it up.
This episode got me thinking about RubyAMP.

BTW, I pretty much decided that vim wasn’t worth the energy. Back to TM with a fresh perspective and loving it.
Thanks for these tips! Very helpful and they’ll keep me out of irb needlessly
