Comment in a02f812:

wrt parens and logic: it is a matter of style, but one that I think encourages clarity of intention. Logical binding behaves similarly to order of operations in mathematics, and while it's not always necessary to use parens, they can clarify a complicated expression.

Basically I look at it like this:
unless the path's first segment is equal to our url namespace and the path ends in ".js" then run the application.

which could be written:

unless path_is_valid? and url_is_javascript_file?

But since there is little point in extracting those to actual methods, the parens say, Hey, these are discrete concepts.

as far as movement around text, that's what your text editor is supposed to be good at :D Textmate has option-left/right arrow to move between word boundaries.

Comment on lib/rack/coffee.rb L2 in a02f812:

1.9.1 behaves the same way, presumably so does 1.8.6:

RUBY_VERirb(main):001:0> RUBY_VERSION
=> "1.8.7"
irb(main):002:0> Time.now.httpdate
NoMethodError: undefined method `httpdate' for Thu Jan 28 22:07:00 -0800 2010:Time
from (irb):2
irb(main):003:0> require 'time'
=> true
irb(main):004:0> Time.now.httpdate
=> "Fri, 29 Jan 2010 06:08:31 GMT"

Comment in a02f812:

really? i ran it against rubys 1.8.7 and 1.9.1 locally, but my rakes get each other confused so it's possible there's something I missed.

Comment on lib/rack/coffee.rb L22 in a02f812:

personally, i prefer this style of the looser binding of and and grouping statements with parens; I think it reads easier.

Comment on lib/rack/coffee.rb L1 in a02f812:

Bah OK fine. I still think Pathname is so awesome it should be in stdlib though.

Comment on lib/rack/coffee.rb L2 in a02f812:

doesn't Time#httpdate require extlib's time? Or maybe I'm thinking of #xmlschema.
