I am indulging in Ruby right now and this script does not allow for Ruby, which comments just like shell and Perl. So, if you choose to Edit Scripts under the script menu and go to this script, replace line 19 as follows:</p> <p>Instead of: if ($fileString =~ m!^($perlCmt|$cCmt)?#!\s<em>.</em>?/perl|^($perlCmt|$cCmt)?#!\s<em>.</em>?/sh!) {</p> <p>Try this: if ($fileString =~ m!^($perlCmt|$cCmt)?#!\s<em>.</em>?/(perl|ruby)|^($perlCmt|$cCmt)?#!\s<em>.</em>?/sh!) {</p> <p>(no carriage returns added and I have no idea how much of this syntax will display in my comment - sorry in advance)</p> <p>It makes commenting and uncommenting my Ruby scripts much, much easier.</p> An additional quick tip for Xcode 3.0 – Under the Scripts > Comments > Un/Comment Selection, we have a perl script that checks for the type of file you are working in and comments appropriately. I am indulging in Ruby right now and this script does not allow for Ruby, which comments just like shell and Perl. So, if you choose to Edit Scripts under the script menu and go to this script, replace line 19 as follows:

Instead of: if ($fileString =~ m!^($perlCmt|$cCmt)?#!\s.?/perl|^($perlCmt|$cCmt)?#!\s.?/sh!) {

Try this: if ($fileString =~ m!^($perlCmt|$cCmt)?#!\s.?/(perl|ruby)|^($perlCmt|$cCmt)?#!\s.?/sh!) {

(no carriage returns added and I have no idea how much of this syntax will display in my comment – sorry in advance)

It makes commenting and uncommenting my Ruby scripts much, much easier.

Click "Download Code" then download the "Bonus Sections Disk Image". The only problem with the document is that the folder in which the author tells you to put your xctxtmacro file no longer works with Xcode 2.5 (and presumably 3.0). The correct folder is ~/Library/Application Support/Developer/Shared/Xcode/Specifications.</p> You’ve probably figured it out by now, but there is a better way.There’s a free chapter from the book “Beginning Xcode” (http://www.wrox.com/WileyCDA/WroxTitle/productCd-047175479X.html) that describes the file format.
