This cheers merry Christmas in 1999.
Ruby glossary (in English) is out.
The document provides translation of Ruby glossary (full version), which its original version didn't opened up to global Rubyists. It's in RD format.

This is also true in the (online version of) glossary.
All the global Rubyists have now a poor glossary.html (in ruby-man) only. On the other hand, its Japanese version (by matz) is far more concise and pleasant one.
So I (SugHimsi) tried to translate it.
# Statement: I have nothing to do with the Ruby BOOK translation.
I enjoyed the author's frank (but not foul) tone in every item. If you feel this document something flat, heavy, or dark, it's absolutely not with the original word, but with my blunder.
I wish you enjoy today's pithy maxims, and merry Christmas of 2000.
Thanks to matz, the original author.
