Issue #20525 has been updated by bradgessler (Brad Gessler). Actually this looks decent: ```rb Markdown ~{ # Hi! This is markdown } ``` ---------------------------------------- Feature #20525: Percent string literal with indentation support or String#dedent https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20525#change-109303 * Author: bradgessler (Brad Gessler) * Status: Open ---------------------------------------- I have code that looks like this in an application: ```ruby ContentSlide(title: "Why Phlex?"){ Markdown <<~MARKDOWN * Because its fun * Because its super-de-dooper MARKDOWN }, ``` The "squiggle" HEREDOCs strips the indentation, but the name of the HEREDOC doesn't look that great since "Markdown" appears twice. What I'd prefer is a string literal that deals with indentation, maybe it looks something like this: ``` ContentSlide(title: "Why Phlex?"){ Markdown %~{ # Why do you like markdown? * Because its fun * Because its super-de-dooper } }, ``` If Ruby doesn't want to go down the path of adding another type of literal, I'd propose adding a method to String that does the same thing as the `~` HEREDOC so something like this is possible: ```ruby ContentSlide(title: "Why Phlex?"){ Markdown %{ # Why do you like markdown? * Because its fun * Because its super-de-dooper }.dedent }, ``` -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
