Implementation of a Gap Buffer for Ruby MRI.
  (c) 2010 Lourens Naudé (methodmissing), based off work from Hsin Tsao <stsao@lazyhacker.com>

How Gap Buffers work :

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gap_buffer
http://www.lazyhacker.com/gapbuffer/gapbuffer.htm

This library works with Ruby 1.8 and 1.9 and exposes the following API :

  gb = GapBuffer.new
  gb.size #=> 20
  gb.offset #=> 9
  gb << "test"
  gb.print #=> test_______________
  gb.insert('b')
  gb.offset #=> 5
  gb.print #=> testb______________
  gb.insert_at(6, 'u')
  gb.print #=> testbu_____________
  gb.previous #=> b
  gb.next #=> u
  gb.offset = 7
  gb.put('f')
  gb.print #=> testbuf____________

To run the test suite:

  rake

Todo:

  Better 1.9 compat
  Look into moving off the C++ implementation

Work in progress, thanks for watching!
