Sooo... you're just being lazy? Why?

Get a better text editor.

Clever code like you linked to is bad.

One thing to point out is that you don't need the begin and extra  
level of indentation:

def blah
   # ... code
rescue
   # ... handler
end

but that's really just 1 line and some spaces. Functionally they're  
equivalent.
