Convert RB to TXT

Understanding rb and txt file formats

RB files are source code files written in the Ruby programming language. They contain human-readable code that can be executed by the Ruby interpreter. TXT files, on the other hand, are plain text files that store unformatted text and can be opened by any text editor.

Why convert rb to txt?

Converting an RB file to TXT is useful when you want to share or archive Ruby code as plain text, or when you need to view or edit the code in a basic text editor without Ruby-specific formatting.
