The Ultimate URL DSL!

# url dsl -- the ultimate url dsl!
#
# You just can't beat this:
#
#   $ irb -r url_dsl
#   >> include URLDSL
#   => Object
#   >> http://github.com/defunkt.json
#   => #<URLDSL::Request http://github.com/defunkt.json/>
#   >> puts http://github.com/defunkt.json
#   [{"repository":{"url":"http://github.com/defunkt/repl",
#   ... etc ...
#   => nil
#
# Or this:
#
#   >> require 'json'
#   => true
#   >> url = http://twitter.com/statuses/show/6592721580.json
#   => #<URLDSL::Request http://twitter.com/statuses/show/6592721580.json/>
#   >> JSON.parse(url.to_s)['text']
#   => "He nose the truth."

# Helper for using URLDSL in a Ruby file:

  #   => <yaml>

Thanks, i can use this piece of code.
