OK. Still, I see no values in ARGV -- which seeing the line above, it would make sense. I'm no longer trying to pass an argument to my_utility, so I must have to pick up the piped input in some other way. So, back to Matt's input (no pun intended, ar-ar)... Instead of ARGV I use STDIN.gets, and it works. Thanks guys. -- gw -- SD Ruby mailing list [email protected] http://groups.google.com/group/sdruby
