Subject: [ruby-talk:13358] Prog. Ruby: p156-157

The Sample Application from Thomas & Hunts, Programming Ruby,
page 156-157 has an example of "Pig." If I open the Ruby only Icon
of Pig, and then use the Ruby Interpreter, where Pig is part of
the Tk file, the results are correct.

However, if I open the same file with "Notepad", copy and paste
the file to the Ruby Interpreter, IRB the program goes into
a loop and I receive no output. The text file in the latter is
the same text as given on pages 156-157.  Why the difference?

Thank you very much.
