2025-01-07Move string escape sequence documention further downEarlopain
If someone looks at documention for strings, I don't think escape sequences is what they look for in majority of the cases. Notes: Merged: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/12318

2019-08-04Use the word heredocs in Here Documents docsOlivier Lacan
Two advantages: - higher relevance of the extremely common word "heredocs" which may help people find this page when searching for "ruby heredocs" - the anchor link becomes `#label-Here+Documents+-28heredocs-29`, which is ugly due to the parentheses but includes the word "heredocs" in the URL to this section If anyone knows a way to prevent RDoc from turning invalid characters into ugly and meaningless ASCII codes, I'm listening. I don't want to break existing anchor links but RDoc should really ignore these characters or turn them into dashes. Closes: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/2103
2019-05-03Fix typoMarcus Stollsteimer
2019-04-29Disallow also CR in here-doc identifierNobuyoshi Nakada
* parse.y (heredoc_identifier): CR in here-document identifier might or might not result in a syntax error, by the EOL code. make a syntax error regardless of the EOL code.
2019-04-29parse.y: fix here-doc identifier with newlineNobuyoshi Nakada
* parse.y (heredoc_identifier): quoted here-document identifier must end within the same line. the only corner case that here-document identifier can contain a newline is that the closing qoute is placed at the beginning of the next line, and has been warned since 2.4. ```ruby <<"EOS " # warning: here document identifier ends with a newline EOS ```
