Monkey patching Fixnum to shorten looking at epoch strings. Doing a bit of this today and I got tired of typing 'Time.at <epoch value>'.

	class Fixnum
	def at
	Time.at self
	end

Here's some fun with monkey patching a class to see an XMLRPC response. I can't directly get at seeing what I'm going to send to an XMLRPC service with the XMLRPC::Client object itself. If I try to reach in and call 'create().methodCall', I'm told it's private. So, why not create a method where I can make a call and see what's going to happen, w…

	$ ruby xmlrpc-test.rb
	"<?xml version=\"1.0\" ?><methodCall><methodName>command</methodName><params><param><value><struct><member><name>expr</name><value><array><data><value><string>2 * 3</string></value></data></array></value></member></struct></value></param></params></methodCall>\n"

I'm getting an error message when trying to use a variable with async and poll options on a task. It's no problem to use variables elsewhere, but for poll and async, it's a problem. Example below with just poll. Thoughts?

Ruby Friends, I'm having some trouble with Net::SSH on a machine connecting to a local virtual machine, created through veewee. When veewee attempts to connect to the VM it just created, it fails with an authentication error. I've reduced it to Net::SSH as the issue. I've spun up a virtual machine through veewee on two machines (Ruby 2.0.0 on bo…
