Needed help in a ruby script with user interaction involved!
Hi all,

I am struck at this point and needed some help in ruby
I wanted to write a script that accepts the no of VNICs the user wants to create and
then ask for the name of each Vnic he wants
then use these names to create the corresponding Vnics

Eg: suppose that there are 2 Vnics to be created
Then the user should be asked for the names of these and upon entering the names the corresponding ones are created

PS: this is actually a part of the wrapper script that i am struck with!
The command to create the Vnic is already present i just need to know how to include the names provided by the user into the command so that the job is done!

Could anyone please help me
Thanks

ruby-switch

RUBY-SWITCH(1)															    RUBY-SWITCH(1)

NAME

       ruby-switch - switch between different Ruby interpreters

USAGE

       ruby-switch --list

       ruby-switch --check

       ruby-switch --set RUBYVERSION

       ruby-switch --auto

DESCRIPTION

       ruby-switch can be used to easily switch to different Ruby interpreters as the default system-wide interpreter for your Debian system.

       When run with --list, all supported Ruby interpreters are listed.

       When --check is passed, ruby-switch will check which Ruby interpreter is currently being used. If the settings are inconsistent -- e.g.
	 `ruby` is Ruby 1.8 and `gem` is using Ruby 1.9.1, ruby-switch will issue a big warning.

       When --set RUBYINTERPRETER is used ruby-switch will switch your system to the corresponding Ruby interpreter. This includes, for example,
       the default implementations for the following programs: ruby, gem, irb, erb, testrb, rdoc, ri.

       ruby-switch --set auto will make your system use the default Ruby interpreter currently suggested by Debian.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
	   Displays the help and exits.

A NOTE ON RUBY 1.9.x
       Ruby uses two parallel versioning schemes: the `Ruby library compatibility version' (1.9.1 at the time of writing this), which is similar
       to a library SONAME, and the `Ruby version' (1.9.3 is about to be released at the time of writing).

       Ruby packages in Debian are named using the Ruby library compatibility version, which is sometimes confusing for users who do not follow
       Ruby development closely.

       ruby-switch also uses the Ruby library compatibility version, so specifying `ruby1.9.1' might give you Ruby with version 1.9.2, or with
       version 1.9.3, depending on the current Ruby version of the `ruby1.9.1' package.
