Yesterday I succeeded in getting Ruby on Rails working with mysql to get a
localhost website for web development. There is only one thing that befuddles
me: when I edited the .yml database file with netbeans it said that I should do
a plain text hash of the mysql/.yml databse password. That is double dutch to
me. I've tried Google. But it is one of those questions where you don't know
what to google. The next generation of intelligent heuristic browsers will be
good in such a case. Anyway, ruby on rail forums haven't proven to be any use.

So, does anyone here know how to hash/encrypt/disguise passwords that are in
plain text, as the password is on my computer in the .yml file.
