how to install what on windows?

If you’re trying to install the ruby/gnome bindings, I think using the  
gtk2 gem is what you’re looking for:

sudo gem install gtk2

You’ll need to install gtk as well. Look at my website:

Thanks, that’s exactly what I’m looking for  
Guess I need to change visualruby with gtk2  
but visualruby is also looks very interesting, I’ll give it a try later
