pretty print to a file in ruby

Question

I am trying to pretty print a hash to a file.

I tried unix redirects [added different flags to it incrementally] :

`echo #{pp  mymap} | tee summary.out          


        

Answer 1

require 'pp'

class File
  def pp(*objs)
    objs.each {|obj|
      PP.pp(obj, self)
    }
    objs.size <= 1 ? objs.first : objs
  end
end

File.open('output','w') do |file|
  file.pp mymap
end
