I just wanted to say good job for the folks responsible for the  
integrated IRB and Ruby help app that’s bundled with the Ruby 1.8.4  
One-Click Installer. This app is a great resource so folks can browse  
the various classes and their respective methods. It reminds me of the  
Smalltalk system browsers and is likely a welcome addition to a  
newbie’s toolbelt. Great work!

Are we talking about Windows? Could you please post I link?  
I installed quite recently ruby on windows, but the binary installer was  
only for 1.8.2. I probably have missed out the 1.8.4, but…

The O.-Click Ruby Installer 1.8.4 preview3 has been posted since Jan  
31. As I mentioned in the announcment, its preview3 and not final  
because it still has a few flaws (enumerated in the announcement) that  
need to be fixed before final but that most people won’t care about.

The OCI download page is here:

[http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group\_id=167](http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=167)

The current bug list is here:
