Comment:
Hi!
This is because of the way strings are implemented within MacRuby. If you
look at the result of this command:
{{{
macruby -e 'p String.ancestors'
[String, NSMutableString, NSString, Comparable, NSObject, Kernel]
}}}
You can see that `String` is defined on top of of `NSMutableString`, which
is why defining a method on `String` won't define it on `NSMutableString`
or `NSString`.
In your example, if you replace "`class String`" by "`class NSString`",
then it will work as expected:
{{{
String
Bacon!
String
Bacon!
}}}
