It seems there is a bug in Predef:

def readLine(text: String, args: Any*) = Console.readLine(text, args)

When I think it should be:

def readLine(text: String, args: Any*) = Console.readLine(text, args: _*)

The first version causes the args to be be wrapped in WrappedArray when called like this: readLine("hello %s%n", "world")

See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7693872/predef-readline-behaviour

I'm not sure why WrappedArray but a quick test in REPL shows the second version would work and also it makes sense to use the type ascription to use the seq as a repeated parameter.
