Dynamic Method Handling

This class handles dynamic methods through the method_missing method

#method_missing(method_name, *args, **kwds) ⇒ Object

Basically delegates everything to String

def method_missing(method_name, *args, **kwds)
  ret = to_s.public_send(method_name, *args, **kwds)
  ret.respond_to?(:to_str) ? self.class.new(ret) : ret
end
