Hi Luis, I love reading you and Roger's posts. :) You guys do a ton of work and if no one else says it - many of us appreciate what you both have been doing. I gave up trying to create a full compile of Vexp 8.0 studio because you were right - long long work to get it done. I have about half the compiles finished. The ming version you have is just so much better. @ others asking this, I would recommend that you learn how to unpack the binaries like luis suggested and add them to your path. By adding them to your path, when you compile any newer ruby versions, they will be picked up and compiled with the latest versions. Personally, I think it would be easier to use binaries and compile ruby because you can add features that might not be available or missing from a one-click installer. For instance, TK is not in the present one-click installer. If you add the binaries to your path though and follow the walk through you can have that installed with your ruby version. This is just an example and I'm in agreement with Luis.. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
