gets doesn't work

you can't use gets in tryruby.

i'll take a look t the rubyspec project and see if there isnt someway to run tryruby against rubyspec.

I suspect we will find several more methods.
Infact, does method_missing work?

it seems to.

good

I totally forgot about this issue. wow I need to get to working on checking against ruby spec. My internet connection has been third world like lately.

This is still an issue however.
If I type:

puts  "what is your name?"
name=gets
puts "hello" + name + " how are you?

It throws this error:

TypeError: can't convert nil into String

I am going to readdress this one later today.

hmm.. I am getting a security exception on this one.
