= 0.9.4
3. downloaded all dependencies rake, activesupport,active record,  
actionpack,actionwebservice, actionmailer and installed using - gem  
install  
gemname --local command
4. downloaded rails.gem and installed using - gem install rails --local.  
rails -v = Rails 1.2.3
5. added c:\ruby\bin to path variable.
6. created an app using - rails app
7. changed to that folder and issued - ruby script/server
