Example:
test.rb - It’s your file.
and you want test.rb to test.exe yes?

It’s easy:

rubyscript2exe test.rb test.exe

my file is many picture and I want to make to exe for run in other
computer so I put all file in ‘/new’ unless It can make only .rb to exe
and can’t show picture. I can make .exe now but I will pop up DOS and I
don’t want it. I want to know how to do :’(

As Luka pointed out, you want the --rubyscript2exe-rubyw switch.

Try creating it with --rubyscript2exe-ruby and running in it a DOS box
first to see if it raises an exception.

Also, you should ensure that your script doesn’t call “puts” or similar
as this may cause errors with the -rubyw switch, because the output is
closed.

it and try again. thank you :slight_smile:
