I _think_ I was suggesting
nonCommentLines(aFile) do |line|
# process
end
instead of
aFile.each do |line|
next if line.comment?
# process
end
It just seems to encapsulate the comment stripping in one place. If
you wanted to go the whole hog, you might do
def nonCommentLines(anEnumerable)
anEnumerable.each do |line|
yield(line) unless line.comment?
end
end
Which then makes the detection of comment lines independent of the
stripping of them, and makes both separate from our application's core
functionality.
Not a big deal...

Dave
