I hope I'm not the only one in the world who posts to a discussion list only to (maybe) get the answer to a question moments after hitting posting. Sigh.
Looking again, in the cucumber wiki page "Running Features", I had a sense that I maybe I DID know what to do, went to /examples/dos_line_endings in the cucumber gems installation on my machine, and entered to the CLI - ~$ cucumber features/dos_line_endings.feature After I stopped laughing at the feature description text (I too love Linux), I have to admit that this output simply works for me. Whew. So...my sense of "what to do" now, is to write *.feature files, with corresponding step definition files, then...well, there's lots of what-to-do info very lucidly written in the wiki. I much enjoy reading it - although I wish the Rails stuff was factored out, because it's of no use if you're not doing Rails, and I think I'm going to have to try to translate some of it, and will likely do it badly... If someone wants to redirect me in any way, I'll give very close attention to their advice. Meanwhile, I'm feeling like I can go forward with this and I'll be learning a great deal. This sure looks like fun...and very very useful, in the long run. I'm endlessly grateful for the hard work of others in the Ruby world, from which I benefit so much. t. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Tom Cloyd, MS MA, LMHC - Private practice Psychotherapist Bellingham, Washington, U.S.A: (360) 920-1226 << t...@tomcloyd.com >> (email) << TomCloyd.com >> (website) << sleightmind.wordpress.com >> (mental health weblog) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ _______________________________________________ rspec-users mailing list rspec-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users
