Tanks to the two who helped me with load(). it卒s working fine, and i can 
code a lot faster now: ;)
but i stumbled over another problem:
i have got the hostmask of a person and i made a class User with the 
method nick.
now i wonder, how do i create a object to represent a User?
is there a way to create a object out of a hostmask? because somewhere i 
read that a string is no object... is that true?

this is my Userclass so far... (i know there are ways to improve that, 
but i卒m with ruby since 3 days only :)

class User
attr_accessor :hostmask
attr_reader :nick
def initialize
@hostmask = ""
@nick = ""
end
def nick(hostmask = @hostmask)
if hostmask != ""
@nick = hostmask.split("!")
@nick = @nick[0].split(":")
@nick[1].chomp
end
end
end


@dave
so far i don卒t know if i get to that point, as i卒m making a very 
specialized kind of bot to control some channels.
but if you let me know what that bot should be able to do, i卒ll try to 
implement it and put it online
btw: wouldn卒t it be cool to have a GPL-bot who distributes his code by 
DCC? :)

so far it卒s able to respond to the most common things like PING or 
VERSION, so it will survive in IRC, now 鱈卒m coding some user and 
channel-objects for manipulation.


thx in advance
