[TxMt] Re: xcode message when running ruby

[rburrowes]

The code is on Rubyforge in 

http://gedcom.rubyforge.org/git?p=gedcom.git;a=tree

Or via git using

git clone git://rubyforge.org/gedcom.git

I could email you a copy if you wanted. It is about 500K. I haven't sat down
and tried to work out the minimum code that will generate the error.

Running test/gedcom, after removing the comments from around
lib/gedcom/transmission.rb's summary method, will print the string, print
the string to /tmp/xx.txt and print the string again. Both prints give the
error, but the file copy is correct.

The string is produced calling f.to_gedcom, which is a method in
lib/gedcom/gedcom_base.rb. This actually walks through all the other objects
that were created from the classes in lib/gedcom/*.rb. It isn't that easy to
follow.

The error will go away if @@tabs = false, rather than true. This stops the
leading spaces being added to the lines in the string (in method
GedcomBase.tabstop in gedcom_base.rb). The line "      3 Time ..." becoming
"3 TIME ...". The error is there for Ruby 1.8.6 and Ruby 1.9.1.
