# Con-way XML Sample Code for Ruby - Rating interface
#
# Required: This example uses the Ruby Electric XML (REXML) libraries for processing XML in Ruby.
# You can get REXML at:
# http://www.germane-software.com/software/rexml/
# REXML API documentation is available here:
# http://www.germane-software.com/software/rexml/doc/index.html
# and a good introductory tutorial here:
# http://www.germane-software.com/software/rexml/docs/tutorial.html
# -----------------
# TODO:
# * replace the USERNAME and PASSWORD String values below
# with your Con-way username and password
# * to get customer-specific discounts, replace CUSTNMBR String value
# below with your Con-way customer number
#
