Q1 of BORQ - Mad Libs

My solution for Mad Libs, I need to practice some more regular expression. Rubular is a great help for people like me. RegExp is in a more free-form in Ruby compared to python, which is quite good for quick experiments on irb.

	# solution to simpler part
	# puts gets.chop.gsub!( /\(\([^))]*\)\)/) { |w| w=gets.chop}
	# part 2 - along with substitution
	dict = {}
	puts IO.read(ARGV.shift).chop.gsub!( /\(\([^))]*\)\)/) { |w|
	w = w.scan(/[^()]+/)[0]
	combo = w.split(":")
	if (combo.size==2)
	print "Enter #{combo[1]} : "
	w = dict[combo[0]] = gets.chop
	else
	if (dict[combo[0]] == nil)
	print "Enter #{combo[0]} : "
	w=gets.chop
	else
	w = dict[combo[0]]
	end
	end
	}

I wish I could even get rid of the "if"s and make it sexier. Can't think more on this one right now.
