-The <a href="../../classes/MethodicHash.html">MethodicHash</a> is some
-method_missing magic that uses method names as hash keys, so hash
-assignment and lookup appear to be attribute writing and reading. For
-instance, if
-</p>
-<pre>
-  mh = MethodicHash.new
-  mh['four']  = 'iv'

-  mh[:four]      ---&gt; 'iv'
-  mh.four        ---&gt; 'iv'
-  mh['seven']    ---&gt; 'vii'

-</pre>
-<p>
-This allows access to simply declared facts to be embedded in Ruby code and
-leverages the possibility of hashing procs.
-</p>
-<p>
-Note that if the hash uses anything but strings or symbols as keys, the
-magic stands a good chance of failing, raising an error or acting in a
-bizarre manner. Note also that methods of the Hash cannot be used as
