<<(text) Ver: 2.0.1
From: Builder::XmlBase Version 2.0.1
Comments

Append text to the output target without escaping any markup. May be used within the markup brackets as: 

  builder.p { |x| x << "<br/>HI" }   #=>  <p><br/>HI</p>

This is useful when using non-builder enabled software that generates strings. Just insert the string directly into the builder without changing the inserted markup.

It is also useful for stacking builder objects. Builders only use << to append to the target, so by supporting this method/operation builders can use other builders as their targets.
