rubylexer version 0.7.6 has been released!
RubyLexer is a lexer library for Ruby, written in Ruby. Rubylexer is
meant
as a lexer for Ruby that’s complete and correct; all legal Ruby
code should be lexed correctly by RubyLexer as well. Just enough parsing
capability is included to give RubyLexer enough context to tokenize
correctly
in all cases. (This turned out to be more parsing than I had thought or
wanted to take on at first.) RubyLexer handles the hard things like
complicated strings, the ambiguous nature of some punctuation characters
and
keywords in ruby, and distinguishing methods and local variables.
