Do you mean this: [Ruby in Twenty Minutes](http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/documentation/quickstart/2/) ? > 2 - [tryruby.hobix.com](http://tryruby.hobix.com) : not open . [tryruby.hobix.com](http://tryruby.hobix.com) was one of \_why’s resources. It’s currently being resurrected: [GitHub - Sophrinix/TryRuby: Try Ruby is a interactive shell that quickly and whimsically teaches the Ruby programming language. Originally \_why's idea, it has been recreated from the ground up by Rubyists who have a passion for Ruby and for teaching their fellow (wo)man how to program.](http://github.com/Sophrinix/TryRuby) Both the links listed on GitHub are currently unavailable, however. > i could open it 1 month ago. but during tutorial i couldnot write square > brackets [] in destop and notebook keyboard. also some special signs > like # {} " cannaot write on interactive ruby irb shell. Is that irb on your own PC? If so, it seems to be a language issue. The Windows OneClickInstaller provides a setting during its setup to support European keyboards. Maybe that’ll help you, too? I’m not the RubyInstaller (a new effort to provide Ruby for Windows systems) seems to have no problem with other language settings (As far as I can see, anyway). Otherwise, you’d have to figure out the locale settings for your system, and see what they are, and if you can find a Ruby package that works for your locale. ---

I was planning on making an official announcement about this. I have been updating my twitter status. [sophrinix.com](http://sophrinix.com) is currently being transferred from one registrar to another. I have been working to get [TryRuby.org](http://TryRuby.org) up and working. Also, I have been incorporating some fixes that nanothief have made which fixed the filesystem part of the lesson. Twitter: Sophrinix I am not entirely sure when the domain will finish transferring. Regardless, I have been planning on launching [TryRuby.org](http://TryRuby.org) once the tryruby program has been restored. Thanks, Andrew McElroy On Sat, Dec 19, 2009 at 7:44 PM, James Edward G.

I just tried it and it worked for me: [http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/documentation/quickstart/2/](http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/documentation/quickstart/2/) > 2 - [tryruby.hobix.com](http://tryruby.hobix.com) : not open . This is the new address: [http://tryruby.sophrinix.com/](http://tryruby.sophrinix.com/) I don’t seem to be able to reach it right now though. James Edward G. II ---
