								<p>Glyph Language is not a full-blown programming language and it is currently not Turing-complete (it does not provide loops). However, it is possible to evaluate simple ruby code snippets using the <code>ruby</code> macro (aliased to <code>%</code>), like this:</p>
<ul>
	<li><code>%[2 + 2]</code> &rarr; 4</li>
	<li><code>%[Time.now]</code> &rarr; Thu Sep 23 13:33:57 +0200 2010</li>
	<li><code>%[Glyph::VERSION]</code> &rarr; 0.4.1</li>
</ul>
<p>The scope for the code evaluation is the Kernel module, (with all inclusions required by Glyph itself).</p>
<p>Although it is possible to retrieve Glyph configuration settings in this way (e.g. <code>%[cfg('document.author')]</code>), the <a href="/glyph/book/macros/macros_core.html#m_config"><code>config</code></a> macro (aliased to <code>$</code>) makes things slightly simpler (e.g. <code>$[document.author]</code>).</p>
