A ruby script for whitespace clean-up
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
# Take a file_name
# If there are any "bad" lines:
# => Print out the file name
# => Print out the offending line numbers
# => Overwrite the file with "good" lines
# You might want to make sure *everything* is in source control first
# It's "good form" to have mass white-space clean-up be a single check-in, too

ruby-1.9.3-p327 cumulative performance patch for rbenv

ruby-1.9.3-p327 cumulative performance patch for rbenv

This installs a patched ruby 1.9.3-p327 with various performance improvements and a backported COW-friendly GC, all courtesy of funny-falcon.

Requirements

You will also need a C Compiler. If you're on Linux, you probably already have one or know how to install one. On OS X, you should install XCode, and brew install autoconf using homebrew.
