title: Is there a drop-in replacement for YAML in Rails?
body: <p>I use hard tabs with my text editor, and I'm consistently being frustrated by YAML refusing to work with them. I'd rather choose a new language than change my habits.</p>
  
  <p>So, is there some way to use, for example, JSON or XML for fixtures instead?<br>
  I'm still new to Rails, so I'm not sure if it allows for alternate syntax in fixtures.</p>
