sure, but would'nt it be cool if we could draw
directly from FR and have automated synchronous
code/model/test changes ? 8-)

I mean that if you have code like

#my code
class C
 def my_method 
   puts 'this is my_method in class C'
 end
end
#end

the "puts" gets recognized as a class definition.

the same goes for stuff beetween // or "" or %{} or
whatever.

You can see this bug when you generate test for
dumb_test_builder.
This is related to basic_source_parser, anyway.. 

The other thing I was saying is that possibly we could
use a general test for 'ignorable zones' like 
'',"",[],//, =begin =end, <<-EoF\n EoF,  # \n , and so
on saving the starter element in some variable and
skipping everything till the matching closing element.

An other choice could be the usage of RACC to generate
a portable ruby parser..

I wrote wrong examples in the previous message,
sorry..
