RCR 158: There should be an ios-specific record separator
Submitted by legacy (Wed Oct 08 00:10:36 UTC 2003)
Abstract
This is a legacy RCR from Ruby Garden, submitted by grady. Matz has declared these RCRs obsolete, and asked that their authors resubmit them in the new format.
$, and other ios-related variables, are currently global. It would be nice if there were ios-specific versions of these variables, so you could say something like:
socket.output_record_separator = "
"

Oops, of course it's hard to get the right code to show up. Between the quotes should be backslash-r backslash-n.
The specification of IO#each allows you to do socket.each(" ") { }. I've still voted in favour of this for those cases where #each doesn't make sense.
