Trouble with ARGV

Ruby
#1

Can anyone tell me what the problem is with this:

first, second, third = ARGV

puts "The script is called: #{$0}"
puts "Your first variable is: #{first}"
puts "Your second variable is: #{second}"
puts "Your third variable is: #{third}"

It’s returning:

The script is called unpack.rb
Your first variable is:
Your second variable is:
Your third variable is:

I can’t figure out why it won’t print the variables? Would really
appreciate any help. Thanks.

#2

How do you call the script and which values do you expect in ARGV?

#3

Here’s how I’m calling the script:

unpack.rb first 2nd 3rd

I expect the values to be: first second and third respectfully.

I did some researching and I think the problem is that I’m running Ruby
in a Windows Vista environment. I tried using ftype to associate the
correct path, but like I said, I’m extremely new to this and I’m not
having much luck.
