Ruby Examples

These are examples I have written to a) help learn Ruby better and b) provide me with something to contribute to the online Ruby Cookbook

Make sure that you get a particular option passed to you using GetoptLong
Make sure that you get a particular option passed to you, Quick and dirty version

I hope these examples are useful to you and, if you have any feedback, comments or improvements on any of these scripts, don't hesitate to drop me an e-mail.
