Hi,  
When running Rubyscript2exe on my .rb application. I get and unexpected  
return (LocalJumpError). But works fine when I do ruby app.rb.

The only thing on that line is return 0;  
Is this normal ? If not. anyone knows how to fix it ?

Thanks!

I continued reading the Ruby Documentation and used exit(int) instead of  
return and it works great!

My code did not use any functions. So I now assume return is for  
functions and exit is to return to any calling application

Thanks to anyone who took the time to read it.
