I’ve been forced to learn Ruby as a side effect of learning TextMate. While posting to blogs, I often get timeouts because my ISP is slow when it comes to processing XMLRPC via perl.
So I dug around and found that TextMate’s XMLRPC is just a standard Ruby class. On top of that, that class is actually very well documented and it was very easy to see that there is a timeout parameter.
So I modified my local copy of the Blogging bundle and we’ll see how this post goes. š
