No, nor have I missed the particular function described working with Ruby.

But, OTOH, I am aware that its possible to do good-enough-for-many-uses implementations of things for which a complete, general solution is impossible, including the function described.

Personally, I haven't -- is there a way that the benefits of these tools could be translated into a ruby-based environment? Are such solutions already available? Would be interested to know more.
