Subject: system command expansion after PTY.spawn

Hi!

-<snap>------------------------
require 'pty'
require 'expect'

pty_read, pty_write, pid = PTY.spawn( "irb" )
pty_write.sync = true
pty_read.expect( "irb(main):001:0> " )
pty_write.print( "exit\n" )
pty_read.close
pty_write.close

`uname`
-<snap>------------------------

results in

-<snap>------------------------
t.rb:11:in ``': Child_changed: 29977 (RuntimeError)
     from t.rb:11
-<snap>------------------------

Please, what am I missing here?


Thanks,
