Parenthesize warning

[wcaleb]

When I run boom, I get a series of warnings about parenthesizing arguments for future versions, like this:

/Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/boom-0.2.3/bin/../lib/../lib/boom/command.rb:198: warning: parenthesize argument(s) for future version
/Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/boom-0.2.3/bin/../lib/../lib/boom/command.rb:202: warning: parenthesize argument(s) for future version
/Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/boom-0.2.3/bin/../lib/../lib/boom/storage/keychain.rb:29: warning: parenthesize argument(s) for future version
/Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/boom-0.2.3/bin/../lib/../lib/boom/storage/keychain.rb:61: warning: parenthesize argument(s) for future version

So should I be wrapping arguments in parentheses? Will not doing so somehow prevent me from updating versions later? And can I hide these warnings in the meantime?

Apologize if this is a CLI newbie question, but I couldn't find the issue addressed anywhere else.

Can you run gem -v and ruby -v on the prompt for me?

[wcaleb]

The first returns 1.3.6, the second 1.86 (2009-06-08 patchlevel 369) [universal-darwin9.0].

I'm running Mac OS X 10.5.8, so I had to do some working around just to update gem in the first place.

[wcaleb]

Oops, that should read 1.8.6.

I suspect this isn't a problem on 1.8.7 (which is what I normally run). I don't think I'll be accommodating 1.8.6 since it's fairly ancient.

[wcaleb]

Fair enough. I don't seem to be having any real problem running boom. Just
wonder if you have ideas about how to hide the warnings so they don't print
every time I run the program?

I'd try updating your Ruby to 1.8.7 or 1.9, to be honest.

[arbales]

its definitely 1.9.2 time.
