65
+ <p>As a Ruby project, you can get the CoffeeScript compiler installed with a simple <code>gem install coffee-script</code> or check out <a href="http://github.com/jashkenas/coffee-script/">the code from/on GitHub</a>. The code is worth a look as it's notably quite vanilla with hand crafted Ruby covering the lexer and code generation and <a href="http://i.loveruby.net/en/projects/racc/doc/">Racc</a> built code for the parser.</p>

111
+ <p>For folks who'd like to see where the language is headed, I'd recommend checking out the source and running "rake gem:install" -- I'm hoping to have version 0.2.0 out soon, which includes significant whitespace, object comprehensions, better conversion of statements into expressions, and a whole host of other goodies, most of which you can read about here:</p>

+ <p><img alt="caroon_sjobsmain_0110.png" src="http://www.readwriteweb.com/caroon_sjobsmain_0110.png" />I'm just aching to know if the new Apple tablet (insert caveats, weasel words and qualifiers here) is a potential Cintiq competitor. I don't think it will be, but you never know. It may also have a built in barometer and bird call generator.</p>
356
+
357
+ <p>I'm never sure if Apple does themselves more good than harm with the secrecy and anticipation that surrounds the run-up to these announcements. Unless there's something truly jaw-dropping about whatever device rises from the stage when Steve Jobs reaches that particular slide in Keynote, the reaction may be muted disappointment: "Oh." "Huh." "Wait a minute... my life is still the same miasma of thwarted potential and spiritual anomie that it was half an hour ago!"</p>
