Hi, 

I would like to hack directly on the MRI, specifically using C to create class objects, to play around with st_table, etc. I'm currently going through the "Ruby Hackers Guide" and "Ruby Under a Microscope" but would like to be hands on executing C code that exercises various features of the Ruby VM. I'm just curious to know how ruby hackers hack directly on the MRI. For example, is it easier to create a C extension? Any advice or pointers to resources would be great.

Cheers.
