= Pre-Defined Global Variables
Some of the pre-defined global variables have synonyms
that are available via module Engish.
For each of those, the \English synonym is given.
To use the module:
require 'English'
== Exceptions
=== <tt>$!</tt> (\Exception)

end

begin
raise RuntimeError.new('Boo!')
rescue RuntimeError
pp $@.take(4)
end
Output:
["(irb):338:in `<top (required)>'",
