I have a Rakefile that defines the spec task as task :spec => [:check_dependencies, :load_backends] And then runs the actual rspec tests. During the load_backends task, it loads a class called Story, but in the first spec test, defined?(Story) returns false. I'm assuming that it is intended behavior of Rake to start with a fresh env...

I'm using a rake script to tag the AssemblyInfo.cs files in my .NET projects, but there's a phantom carriage return (or newline, etc.) being introduced that's breaking the compilation.

In this question, the asker requests a solution that would insert a space every x number of characters. The answers both involve using a regular expression. How might you achieve this without a regex? Here's what I came up with, but it's a bit of a mouthful. Any more concise solutions? string = "12345678123456781234567812345678" new_st...
