What is IMHO?; i'm a newbie in ruby and at first i was searching 
something similary with C++ tree structure (beacause that i would use if 
is was C) but i want in ruby and i was searching some gem to help me 
because i have to learn more about ruby language to build my own ruby 
class to work with.
I've tried xml beacuse it was the best (!?)  i found in ruby for 
implementing a tree structure (not only a binary tree), but it is slowly 
when i want to read a big structure.
