GetoptLong

I am new to this mailing. I have some users who are fed up with the
following warning and my inability to explain and/or remove it. It
occurs on every call to GetoptLong.new, and yes, it is on windows.

H:/work/i2cc.rb:1140: warning: don't put space before argument
parenthese

If anyone could provide some help, it would be greatly appreciated.

It means that you've called a method, put its arguments in parentheses and put
a space between the method name and the opening parentheses. Something like
this:

irb: 003> puts (1, 2)
(irb):3: warning: don't put space before argument parentheses

It may help if you could include (inline, not attached) some code examples
(shorted to the minimal) of the code executed from the program(s) in question
and how they are being used, e.g. .\foo.rb --file bar.txt. In my experience it
can generally be best that way for people to know whats going on.

In the past I've usually used optparse (which I dislike) or rolled my own
argument hunt & peck. After reading this and looking up getoptlong, it looks
much more to my tastes so I'll definitely have to check out. Thanks for a poke
hehe;-)
