This got me thinking, and I added four more prettifications (see attached patch) 
for &&, ||, <= and >=, which are all very basic.

I just hack on Ruby, but I use it a lot.  I think that anyone writing Ruby in 
Emacs who already has prettify-symbols-mode turned on (and is seeing it work 
with Python, R, Org, etc.) would, when they see this start working, say, "Hey, 
that's nice."

Thanks for looking at the patch.

Cheers,

Bill
