one DSL to affect the parsing of another.

#### 0.5.6 (2009-04-28) ###############################

• CHANGED: find_deferred now supports nested Arrays. See rdocs.

• BUG: Found bug related to string/symbol ambiguity when using find.

It's not fixed yet so for now be mindful of which attributes are strings and which are symbols. String attributes are stored as strings but find and find_deferred look for symbols. The hash syntax and method accessors are not affected.

#### 0.5.1 (2009-03-11) ###############################

• FIXED: Method-syntax was broken for attributes of top level method

• FIXED: Caesars::Hash#refresh was setting @options to nil

rather than overwrites.

food :extra do; end; # => food_extra

#### 0.4.0 (2009-03-05) ###############################

• CHANGE: Removed bloody method. We now parse blocks immediately.

• ADDED: Caesars::Config class for loading DSLs as config files.

See Example 3.

• ADDED: Added find_deferred method to automatically jump up the

heirarchy when looking for a specific attribute.

more hashlike.

• FIXED: “chilled” attributes weren't available by method name

#### 0.3.2 (2009-03-04) ###############################

• FIXED: Added file and line info for eval code (better debugging).

• CHANGE: The top level DSL method names are now determined by

by the class name. Some::ClassName becomes classname. This is less confusing than allowing it to be anything and makes it possible to use several DSLs in the same namespace.

#### 0.3.1 (2009-03-04) ###############################

• ADDED: Accept instances without a name

• ADDED: More rdocs.
