Subject: too clever?

hi,

Sometime, I think ruby is too clever. It automatically expand cmdline.

For example:

myprog *.txt good

in a language like c or pascal, argv[0]="*.txt" argv[1]="good", but in
ruby, all txt file in the directory is put into the command line. This
may be good, but a drawback is it is not convenient to get the second
parameter, because ARGV.length is variable... What do you think?
