tanks a lot 4 your advice, i want my code to be the most rubyich as
possible because it is only a demo for customers (ultrid supports many
script languages aside ruby : BeanShell  DynamicJava  Groovy  Jacl 
Javascript JRuby JudoScript  Jython  PNuts Rexx ) which might have
better knowledge upon Ruby as me...

when everything done i'll repost d-the result in order to get critisism
about the rubyness of my code �;=)
