Two weekends ago i attended the Houston Ruby/Rails group and learned a nifty
trick with IRB. It has tab completion. Can't remember the exact name of a
Watir method? Type tab twice. Thus:

irb(main):006:0> ie.text<tab><tab>
ie.text         ie.textField    ie.text_field   ie.text_fields
irb(main):006:0> ie.text

Cool.

I haven't been paying much attention to this list lately. We had some heavy
regression testing at DataCert for a couple weeks which took all my
attention and then I've decided that i really need to be fixing a lot of the
known problems and getting my Watir backlog organized & worked down. So i'm
giving that priority over user support. I think the users will benefit from
this. I'm making a lot of commits and will have a new dev gem ready soon.
I'm also putting a lot of time into our Watir test suite at DataCert.
