Hello, Attached is a small patch that will make prettify-symbols-mode work in ruby-mode. It just adapts the code that's there for perl-mode, using some of the symbols from python-mode. This is my first time submitting a patch, and I hope it and this commit message are close to what's needed: # ----- Make prettify-symbols-mode work with ruby-mode * lisp/progmodes/ruby.el (ruby--prettify-symbols-alist): New defvar with default symbols to prettify; prettify-symbols-alist is then set to this # ------ My papers are signed and on file.
