[網站] Mark Slagell 寫的 Tutorial: "Ruby User's Guide" 新版
我有一本 Mark Slagell 寫的 Teach Yourself Ruby in 21 Days ( ISBN:0672322528 ) ，只可惜那本是 2002 年版的，那時候是針對 Ruby 1.6 ，雖然包含的內容蠻多的，可是可能因為出版的早，也沒有提到像是 Ruby on Rails, FXRuby, wxRuby, JRuby ... 這些東西，整本書雖然很大本，也很潛顯易懂，可是就是感覺廢話蠻多的(這麼說好像不太好，應該說......作者非常用心講解，花了很多篇幅)，偶然看到作者的網頁上 [url=http://www.rubyist.net/%7Eslagell/]http://www.rubyist.net/~slagell/[/url] 有提供另外一份他翻譯修飾的 Tutorial: "Ruby User's Guide" ，還蠻言簡意賅的，而且是授權如下，是[quote]

當然，關於那個文件授權看英文霧砂砂的話，也可以看一下參考 [url=http://wiki.debian.org.tw/index.php/DebianWiki:Copyrights]DebianWiki:Copyrights 的中文參考翻譯[/url]。
回到重點， Ruby User's Guide 有[url=http://www.rubyist.net/%7Eslagell/ruby/index.html]線上觀看版[/url]，也有下載版(為避免版本號碼不同，請連過去 [url=http://www.rubyist.net/%7Eslagell/]Mark Slagell 的網頁[/url] 抓囉)。
說了半天，結果這份文件好像也沒有提到 Ruby on Rails, FXRuby, wxRuby, JRuby ... 這些東西，囧..... :P
