Subject: Array String.match(Regexp)

Hi

I'd like to know, what is the easiest way of doing the perlish

($i,$j,$k) = $_ =~ /delim(\S+):(\S+):(\S+)/ 

=~ operator in ruby returns nil/number 
I have found just one solution, which uses global $variables.

$_.sub( /regexp_(with)_multiple(.*)/ , "" ) ;
i = $1 ;
j = $2 ;
k = $3 ;

But I don't like global variables. Ruby functions can return
everything..
		a = $stdin.readlines() 
So isn't there somewhere 
	String.match( Regexp ) that returns Array of matches ?
