Well, there are more possiblilities: http://www.ruby-doc.org/stdlib/libdoc/getoptlong/rdoc/index.html http://www.ruby-doc.org/stdlib/libdoc/yaml/rdoc/index.html But all depends on what is your meaning of "best". On the question of speed, I think this is mainly irrelevant. You only read start up options once. Lutz -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
