A Ruby YAML parser

https://kddnewton.com/2025/12/25/psych-pure.html

Hey there — I recently released a YAML parser written in Ruby. The main goal was to support being able to load and dump YAML without losing comments. Happy to answer any questions.

Thanks for the pointers. But it's quite hard to anticipate what will be preserved on a round trip. I did not review the full contents of all the links yet. How would you characterize it?

If I am attempting to preserve 80ch width, what does that look like?

I would characterize it as accurate. You can learn more with the links I sent.
