Hi Perry,

It's not entirely clear to me if the question you're asking pertains to the
best way to run specs for MacRuby, running a focused test under MSpec, or
both. If you're looking for the latter, check out the
-p and -e options. They allow you to run only those tests whose descriptions
match a regexp or string. E.g.

./mspec/bin/mspec run -B spec/macruby.mspec spec/frozen/language/for_spec.rb
-p 'splats multiple arguments'

Not quite as simple as specifying a line number, but it should do the trick.

HTH,
Mike
