--0016364eea10246ae9047423190d Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 I work on a Windows platform and have two utiltities that I can execute a Ruby program from. The IDE SciTE and the fxri- Instant Ruby Enlightenment, or so it says. The input commands such as "gets" do not work in the SciTE utility but do in the fxri utility. If I use a gets command in a program while running on SciTE the system seems to freeze and nothing appears to be happening. So I would like to be able to embed in my code the ability to recognize if I am running in fxri or SciTE to avoid executing a gets command while running in SciTE. Is there a way to do it? Since I use only these two utilities a detection of one would mean that I am not using the other. Thanks in advance to the Ruby Masters. No Sam --0016364eea10246ae9047423190d--
