Besides researching aspects of Ruby, I have taken my old Pascal books to find out how Wirth programs look like in both direct Ruby translations and idiomatic Ruby. Also working with available Ruby insruction material.

Am a retired electric power engineer who never programmed for work. Took up Turbo Pascal as a hobby, but stopped because of family responsibilities and continual employment changes.

I am finding Perplexity user friendly and useful in my endeavors.

After weeks of inactivity, I'm back with updates!

* Case-sensitive input for Question()

* Implemented some more cursor (as in terminals) functions

* Properly print escape sequences to the right outout (stdout or stderr - before was only stdout)

* Implemented color resetting for Win32 console (doesn't work though)

* Fixed the console example not printing anything readable

* Added some well-known sorting algorithms

Test and let me know your thoughts!
