I write Ruby Tk application on Window XP, use ActiveTc18.4.14.0, namely  
Tk::TkTable và Tk::Iwidgets::Dialog. After that packaged by  
Rubyscript2exe, when run the application there is an error report :  
“Package can’t find PackageTable ” or “can’t find PackageIwidgets… ”.  
I think that is because it can find only Widgets on Tk but can’t find  
Widgets on Tkextlib. Who can correct this error please help me? Please  
mail to me: removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid. Thanks for your help.

I have _no_ experience with TK or Rubyscript2exe what ever it is. But to  
me it  
sounds to me like you probably need to tell it where to find those  
things. The  
documentation (if any) should be helpful.

Take a look at  
[http://www.erikveen.dds.nl/rubyscript2exe/index.html#3.1.0](http://www.erikveen.dds.nl/rubyscript2exe/index.html#3.1.0)

There is an option “–rubyscript2exe-tk”, I used it (Windoes2000)  
because I had the same problems with Tk before.
