 Apparently, you like the notation #{...} :-)), but it work *only* in a
 string otherwise it's the beginning of a comment

                 print "1 Help\n" if opt =~ "help"
                 if opt =~ "help"

 What you have written is equivalent to something like this

        opts.each do |opt, arg|
                if (if print "2 Help\n"
                   end)
                   print "1 Help\n"
                end
                puts "Option: #{opt}, arg #{arg}"
        end
