Subject: Re: String constant reference to another class instance variable

Thanks for both your answer, but what I want to achieve is something 
like the following:

(This is a early stage irc lib I'm using)

#!/usr/bin/env ruby
# encoding: utf-8
require File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/lib/irc'

IRC::Connect hostname: 'irc.phora.net' do
  def on_message(nick, channel, message, *args)
    # This is what I want it to be like:
    # nick.say("Hello there, #{nick}!")
    # or atleast something like that.
    # but for now, I'm stuck with this:
    privmsg(nick, "Hello there, #{nick}!")
    # is it maybe possible to make some
    # kind of 'alias'?
  end
end

nick is a string and I think it's too exaggerated to make nick have it's 
own kind of class, just to have this method. Oh, and another thing..

How would I be able to create User instances which also should have 
access to the IRC::Client's socket? Currently I'm using User.new("nick", 
@socket) which is, well.. yeah.

Sincerely,
Mikkel Kroman.
