OK, thanks. At least I am a bit further. Maybe some effort should be  
invested in documenting the C extension process in clear detail, since  
it is always very confusing if you want to do things that are a bit more  
complicated. Are you aware of a good place where I can find detailed  
information?  
Greetings,  
Geert.

Not me, sorry :-( The only places I know with information about C

```

extensions are The Pickaxe and README.EXT, which comes (perhaps _came_)  
with  
the Ruby sources. I’m not exactly a C extension guy, you know 🙂
