Text::Hyphen is a Ruby library to hyphenate words in various languages using Ruby-fied versions of TeX hyphenation patterns. It will properly hyphenate various words according to the rules of the language the word is written in. The algorithm is based on that of the TeX typesetting system by Donald E. Knuth. This is originally based on the Perl implementation of [TeX::Hyphen][] and the [Ruby port][]. The language hyphenation pattern files are based on the sources available from [CTAN][] as of 2004.12.19 and have been manually translated by Austin Ziegler. This is a small feature release adding Russian language support and fixing a bug in the custom hyphen support introduced last version. This release provides both Ruby 1.8.7 and Ruby 1.9.2 support (but please read below). In short, Ruby 1.8 support is deprecated and I will not be providing any bug fixes related to Ruby 1.8. New features will be developed and tested against Ruby 1.9 only.

Daemon launching and management made dead simple. With daemon-spawn you can start, stop and restart processes that run in the background. Processed are tracked by a simple PID file written to disk. In addition, you can choose to either execute ruby in your daemonized process or 'exec' another process altogether (handy for wrapping other services).

Apache Buildr is a build system for Java-based applications, including support for Scala, Groovy and a growing number of JVM languages and tools. We wanted something that's simple and intuitive to use, so we only need to tell it what to do, and it takes care of the rest. But also something we can easily extend for those one-off tasks, with a language that's a joy to use.
