Hi

Have you had this happen to you? I have installed ruby and added all  
gems. However, when I try to run any script just be double clicking the  
file, the file opens with scite and doesnt run. I tried to change it to  
open with the Ruby interpreter (CUI)1 but it still doesn’t run. My paths  
are set to c:\ruby\bin and my pathext is set to .rb;.rbw. Is there  
something that I am missing?

Thanks MC
