rubybook for Debian ------------------- This package contains the HTML edition of the book "Programming Ruby", written by David Thomas and Andrew Hunt and published by Addison-Wesley, Oct 2000 (ISBN: 0201710897) It can also be read online at http://www.rubycentral.com/book/index.html Once you've convinced yourself the book is really worth of your attention please proceed to buy one :) Ruby's webpage is at http://www.ruby-lang.org/ The authors' is at http://www.pragmaticprogrammer.com/ruby/ This package contains revision 0.2 of the online edition of the book. Newer revisions are available for download above, but the license has tightened to not allow "Substantive modification" and distribution in "any standard (paper) book form" is prohibited, making the work "non-free" in the context of the Debian Free Software Guideline. For this reason, newer revisions will not be packaged, but the substance of the book has not changed and this revision can still be considered useful. -- Oliver M.
