Subject: gets give me last arg of script ???


something i don't understand : gets give me last arg of script ???

here is part of my script :

------------------------------------------------------------------------
def get_respons
  return (/^[y|Y|O|o].*/ === gets.to_s.chomp)
end

dir_path=Dir.pwd
dir_path=$*[0] if $*.length == 1
puts "Are you sure you want to convert #{dir_path} ?[y|Y|O|o/n] default
to NO"
if get_respons
  puts "reponse YES"
end
------------------------------------------------------------------------

and the script (being in my $PATH) is called from terminal :
>  set_date /Users/yvon

and the message error i get is :
> set_date /Users/yvon
Are you sure you want to convert /Users/yvon ?[y|Y|O|o/n] default to NO
nil
/Users/yvon/bin/set_date:7:in `gets': Is a directory - /Users/yvon
(Errno::EISDIR)
        from /Users/yvon/bin/set_date:7:in `get_reponse'
        from /Users/yvon/bin/set_date:17

line 7 being "return (/^[y|Y|O|o].*/ === gets.to_s.chomp)"
and 17 the call to "get_respons" : "if get_respons"

notice the $*[0] is allready used in my script ???
