+ruby-dedent
+===========
+
+Installation
+------------
+
+    gem install dedent
+
+Only tested with Ruby 1.9.2 and 1.8.7.
+
+Usage
+-----
+
+This is a tiny gem that adds the `dedent` method to String. This method strips leading whitespace from each
+line, preserving indentation. So, the line with the least amount of leading whitespace will have all leading
+whitespace removed, while other lines will have whitespace relative to that line's offset.
+
+The main use of this is with heredocs. It can be annoying because even with the `<<-` form of heredocs, all
+the initial whitespace on each line of the string is preserved, so if you keep the string in the same
+indentation as the code, you end up with a bunch of extra space.
+
+Here's an example of using dedent with heredocs:
+
+``` ruby
+      # Suppose we're already at some indentation within the code.
+      foo = <<-EOS.dedent
+        This might be a usage banner for a cli tool. Or, it might be some javascript. Or maybe shell code.
+        for f in $(ls /foo/bar/); do
+          cat $f >> $myfile;
+        done
+      EOS
+```
+
+Now the `foo` variable contains the following string:
+
+```
+This might be a usage banner for a cli tool. Or, it might be some javascript. Or maybe shell code.
+for f in $(ls /foo/bar/); do
+  cat $f >> $myfile;
+done
+```
+
+Author
+------
+
+This gem was written by Caleb Spare ([cespare](https://github.com/cespare) on github). It was inspired by
+[Coffeescript's heredocs](http://jashkenas.github.com/coffee-script/#strings).
