Subject: Mystery with ARGF

Hi!

In last few days I was trying to resolve soem issue with the script from
Ruby/Glade bindings supposed to read *.glade interface file.

Since I was getting very strange error, Masao M. finally rewrote the
script to use ARGV isntead of ARGF.

However, the mystery remains.

If I run the 1 line script below (filename as test.rb).

$ cat test.rb
p ARGF
$ ruby test.rb test.rb
test.rb

instead of "test.rb", I get "-" (minus sign). Can somebody explain me why
the usage of ARGF does not work ex expected (to give command line
argument back)?

Sincerely,
Gour
