[ruby-talk:00867] call with a Proc

 Hi,

 I've some problem to understand how ruby pass its argument, specially when
 it has a proc has parameter.

 I've tried this little example (because list() take (*args, &block) as
 arguments), what I'm doing wrong ? 


moulon% cat b.rb
#!/usr/bin/ruby
require "ftplib"
b = FTP.new("moulon.inra.fr", "ftp", '[e-mail]')
b.list('pub').each {|i| puts i}
b.retrlines("LIST pub", Proc.new {|i| puts i})
b.list('pub', Proc.new {|i| puts i})
b.quit
moulon% b.rb
