What about strings contain spaces?

And, you use this construnction several times, but I don't
think you'd expect behavior as it works.

  def foo(*args)
    if defined?(args[0])
      # ...

Since args is defined here, so args[0] also is defined always.
Ruby's `defined?' operator differs from Perl's `defined'
function.

BTW, I found a sample doesn't work expectedly.

  $ ruby ../samples/cmdline_pvtype.rb -blood AB Rh+
  -blood => { '<rh>' => "", '<type>' => "A" }
