Subject: Anybody tell me about net/ftp protocol ?

Dear Friends,
   I am having the source code like this.
require 'net/ftp'

ftp = Net::FTP::new("ftp.ruby-lang.org")
ftp.login("anonymous", "matz@ruby-lang.org")
ftp.chdir("/pub/ruby")
tgz = ftp.list("ruby-*.tar.gz").sort.last
print "the latest version is ", tgz, "\n"
ftp.getbinaryfile(tgz, tgz)
ftp.close

while running this code It is not working properly.
as long as it is simply running,But I am not getting any result.
After pressing ctrl+c I got the error like this.
Please anybody clarify my doubts.
The error is:

/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/net/ftp.rb:211:in `readline': Interrupt
        from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/net/ftp.rb:211:in `getline'
