Ruby internals, a self-study guide

Ruby
1

I’ve written a succinct guide for those interested in learning about the
interpreter, with a reading order recommendation.

http://eigenclass.org/hiki.rb?ruby+internals+guide

It could be expanded (esp. by those who are studying the current
implementation for the first time right now), so feedback is
appreciated.

I’m posting this on ruby-talk because I assume people subscribed to
ruby-core
have already read the sources, and I’ve seen the question (“which order
is
best to read the sources?”) asked repeatedly here.

Many thanks!

After I finish reading, I’ll give it a shot.
