Subject: [ruby-core:116684] [Ruby master Feature#20261] Add symbol alternatives to '' and nil for IO line separators
Date: Mon, 12 Feb 2024 20:34:51 +0000 (UTC) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <redmine.issue-20261.20240212203451.52355@ruby-lang.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: redmine.issue-20261.20240212203451.52355@ruby-lang.org
Issue #20261 has been reported by burdettelamar (Burdette Lamar).
----------------------------------------
Feature #20261: Add symbol alternatives to '' and nil for IO line separators
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20261
* Author: burdettelamar (Burdette Lamar)
* Status: Open
* Priority: Normal
----------------------------------------
For IO's line-oriented read methods, there are two special values for the line-separator argument `sep`; I'm proposing to add (user-friendlier) symbol synonyms for those values:
- `:paragraph` as synonym for `''` (read paragraphs).
- `:slurp` as synonym for `nil` (read all).
Details (code, documentation, tests) may be seen at https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/9921.
