+=scanf for Ruby
+
+==Description
+
+scanf for Ruby is an implementation of the C function scanf(3),
+modified as necessary for Ruby compatibility.
+
+The methods provided are String#scanf, IO#scanf, and
+Kernel#scanf. Kernel#scanf is a wrapper around STDIN.scanf.  IO#scanf
+can be used on any IO stream, including file handles and sockets.
+scanf can be called either with or without a block.
+
+scanf for Ruby scans an input string or stream according to a
+<b>format</b>, as described below ("Conversions"), and returns an
+array of matches between the format and the input.  The format is
+defined in a string, and is similar (though not identical) to the
+formats used in Kernel#printf and Kernel#sprintf.
+
+The format may contain <b>conversion specifiers</b>, which tell scanf
+what form (type) each particular matched substring should be converted
+to (e.g., decimal integer, floating point number, literal string,
+etc.)  The matches and conversions take place from left to right, and
+the conversions themselves are returned as an array.
+
+The format string may also contain characters other than those in the
+conversion specifiers.  White space (blanks, tabs, or newlines) in the
+format string matches any amount of white space, including none, in
+the input.  Everything else matches only itself.
+
+Scanning stops, and scanf returns, when any input character fails to
+match the specifications in the format string, or when input is
+exhausted, or when everything in the format string has been
+matched. All matches found up to the stopping point are returned in
+the return array (or yielded to the block, if a block was given).
+
+
+==Basic usage
+
+   require 'scanf.rb'
+
+   # String#scanf and IO#scanf take a single argument (a format string)
+   array = aString.scanf("%d%s")
+   array = anIO.scanf("%d%s")
+
+   # Kernel#scanf reads from STDIN
+   array = scanf("%d%s")
+
+==Block usage
+
+When called with a block, scanf keeps scanning the input, cycling back
+to the beginning of the format string, and yields a new array of
+conversions to the block every time the format string is matched
+(including partial matches, but not including complete failures).  The
+actual return value of scanf when called with a block is an array
+containing the results of all the executions of the block. 
+
+   str = "123 abc 456 def 789 ghi"
+   str.scanf("%d%s") { |num,str| [ num * 2, str.upcase ] }
+     # => [[246, "ABC"], [912, "DEF"], [1578, "GHI"]]
+
+==Conversions
+
+The single argument to scanf is a format string, which generally
+includes one or more conversion specifiers. Conversion specifiers
+begin with the percent character ('%') and include information about
+what scanf should next scan for (string, decimal number, single
+character, etc.).
+
+There may be an optional maximum field width, expressed as a decimal
+integer, between the % and the conversion. If no width is given, a
+default of `infinity' is used (with the exception of the %c specifier;
+see below).  Otherwise, given a field width of <em>n</em> for a given
+conversion, at most <em>n</em> characters are scanned in processing
+that conversion.  Before conversion begins, most conversions skip
+white space in the input string; this white space is not counted
+against the field width.
+
+The following conversions are available. (See the files EXAMPLES
+and <tt>tests/scanftests.rb</tt> for examples.)
+
+[%]
+  Matches a literal `%'. That is, `%%' in the format string matches a
+  single input `%' character. No conversion is done, and the resulting
+  '%' is not included in the return array.
+
+[d]
+  Matches an optionally signed decimal integer.
+
+[u]
+  Same as d.
+
+[i] 
+  Matches an optionally signed integer. The integer is read in base
+  16 if it begins with `0x' or `0X', in base 8 if it begins with `0',
+  and in base 10 other- wise. Only characters that correspond to the
+  base are recognized.
+
+[o]
+  Matches an optionally signed octal integer.
+
+[x,X]
+  Matches an optionally signed hexadecimal integer,
+
+[f,g,e,E]
+  Matches an optionally signed floating-point number.
+
+[s]
+  Matches a sequence of non-white-space character. The input string stops at
+  white space or at the maximum field width, whichever occurs first.
+
+[c]
+  Matches a single character, or a sequence of <em>n</em> characters if a
+  field width of <em>n</em> is specified. The usual skip of leading white
+  space is suppressed. To skip white space first, use an explicit space in
+  the format.
+
+[<tt>[</tt>]
+  Matches a nonempty sequence of characters from the specified set
+  of accepted characters.  The usual skip of leading white space is
+  suppressed.  This bracketed sub-expression is interpreted exactly like a
+  character class in a Ruby regular expression.  (In fact, it is placed as-is
+  in a regular expression.)  The matching against the input string ends with
+  the appearance of a character not in (or, with a circumflex, in) the set,
+  or when the field width runs out, whichever comes first.
+
+===Assignment suppression
+
+To require that a particular match occur, but without including the result
+in the return array, place the <b>assignment suppression flag</b>, which is
+the star character ('*'), immediately after the leading '%' of a format
+specifier (just before the field width, if any).
+
+==Examples
+
+See the files <tt>EXAMPLES</tt> and <tt>tests/scanftests.rb</tt>.
+
+==scanf for Ruby compared with scanf in C
+
+scanf for Ruby is based on the C function scanf(3), but with modifications,
+dictated mainly by the underlying differences between the languages.
+
+===Unimplemented flags and specifiers
+
+* The only flag implemented in scanf for Ruby is '<tt>*</tt>' (ignore
+  upcoming conversion). Many of the flags available in C versions of scanf(4)
+  have to do with the type of upcoming pointer arguments, and are literally
+  meaningless in Ruby.
+
+* The <tt>n</tt> specifier (store number of characters consumed so far in
+  next pointer) is not implemented.
+
+* The <tt>p</tt> specifier (match a pointer value) is not implemented.
+
+===Altered specifiers
+
+[o,u,x,X]
+  In scanf for Ruby, all of these specifiers scan for an optionally signed
+  integer, rather than for an unsigned integer like their C counterparts.
+
+===Return values
+
+scanf for Ruby returns an array of successful conversions, whereas
+scanf(3) returns the number of conversions successfully
+completed. (See below for more details on scanf for Ruby's return
+values.)
+
+==Return values
+
+Without a block, scanf returns an array containing all the conversions
+it has found. If none are found, scanf will return an empty array. An
+unsuccesful match is never ignored, but rather always signals the end
+of the scanning operation. If the first unsuccessful match takes place
+after one or more successful matches have already taken place, the
+returned array will contain the results of those successful matches.
+
+With a block scanf returns a 'map'-like array of transformations from
+the block -- that is, an array reflecting what the block did with each
+yielded result from the iterative scanf operation.  (See "Block
+usage", above.)
+
+==Test suite
+
+scanf for Ruby includes a suite of unit tests (requiring the
+<tt>TestUnit</tt> package), which can be run with the command <tt>ruby
+tests/scanftests.rb</tt> or the command <tt>make test</tt>.
+
+==Current limitations and bugs
+
+When using IO#scanf under Windows, make sure you open your files in
+binary mode:
+
+    File.open("filename", "rb")
+
+so that scanf can keep track of characters correctly.
+
+Support for character classes is reasonably complete (since it
+essentially piggy-backs on Ruby's regular expression handling of
+character classes), but users are advised that character class testing
+has not been exhaustive, and that they should exercise some caution
+in using any of the more complex and/or arcane character class
+idioms.
+
+
+==Technical notes
+
+===Rationale behind scanf for Ruby
+
+The impetus for a scanf implementation in Ruby comes chiefly from the fact
+that existing pattern matching operations, such as Regexp#match and
+String#scan, return all results as strings, which have to be converted to
+integers or floats explicitly in cases where what's ultimately wanted are
+integer or float values.
+
+===Design of scanf for Ruby
+
+scanf for Ruby is essentially a <format string>-to-<regular
+expression> converter.
+
+When scanf is called, a FormatString object is generated from the
+format string ("%d%s...") argument. The FormatString object breaks the
+format string down into atoms ("%d", "%5f", "blah", etc.), and from
+each atom it creates a FormatSpecifier object, which it
+saves.
+
+Each FormatSpecifier has a regular expression fragment and a "handler"
+associated with it. For example, the regular expression fragment
+associated with the format "%d" is "([-+]?\d+)", and the handler
+associated with it is a wrapper around String#to_i. scanf itself calls
+FormatString#match, passing in the input string. FormatString#match
+iterates through its FormatSpecifiers; for each one, it matches the
+corresponding regular expression fragment against the string. If
+there's a match, it sends the matched string to the handler associated
+with the FormatSpecifier.
+
+Thus, to follow up the "%d" example: if "123" occurs in the input
+string when a FormatSpecifier consisting of "%d" is reached, the "123"
+will be matched against "([-+]?\d+)", and the matched string will be
+rendered into an integer by a call to to_i.
+
+The rendered match is then saved to an accumulator array, and the
+input string is reduced to the post-match substring. Thus the string
+is "eaten" from the left as the FormatSpecifiers are applied in
+sequence.  (This is done to a duplicate string; the original string is
+not altered.)
+
+As soon as a regular expression fragment fails to match the string, or
+when the FormatString object runs out of FormatSpecifiers, scanning
+stops and results accumulated so far are returned in an array.
