title: Ruby File.new `initialize': No such file or directory
body: <p>I'm completely stumped by this one. I'm trying to debug some code that creates a <code>FirstRun</code> file as a marker that the program has already done its first run setup. It tries to create this in the specified working directory, given by the <code>absworkingdir</code> variable. However, when it tries to create the file with <code>File.new</code> I get the following error<br>
  <br>
  <code>`initialize': No such file or directory '</code></p>
  
  <p>Here's the relevant code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>#First run setup
  puts workingdir#debug
  absworkingdir = File.expand_path(workingdir)
  puts absworkingdir#debug
  if File.exist?("#{absworkingdir}/FirstRun.lock") == false
      puts "This appears to be the first run of FigShare Sync. We'll setup a few things."
      print "Where would you like to store settings and files? [~./figsharesync]: "
      @input = gets.chomp
      puts @input#debug
          if @input.empty? == false
              workingdir = @input
              absworkingdir = File.expand_path(workingdir)
          end
      print "Please enter OAuth consumer key: "
      consumerkey = gets.chomp
      print "Please enter OAuth consumer key secret: "
      consumersecret = gets.chomp
      print "Please enter OAuth access token: "
      accesstoken = gets.chomp
      print "Please enter OAuth access token secret: "
      accesstokensecret = gets.chomp
      puts "Great! we'll get running now..."
  puts absworkingdir#debug
  File.new("#{absworkingdir}/FirstRun.lock", "r")
  end

  <p>Here's the output from the debugging lines:</p>
