Thanks again. I have installed rbdj144. I works sometimes, and sometimes
binds the computer up.  The rubyw.exe from another set of binaries doesn't
work at all on the Win95 and Win98 computers I have...several of each of
different companies. It gives a system error on trying to execute.  But you can
do some trivial things with the MSDOS version of Ruby.
