If you just want a file that can be run like a binary executable you can always set the script as executable (chmod 775 file.rb) and put a shebang at the top: #!/usr/bin/env ruby Assuming you want something that can be installed and setup for the user to be run, you can still make the script executable then package it up as a gem. See the redcar gem for an example of such a setup. Another remote possibility is using JRuby to compile to java class files, throw those in a jar, then use something like launch4j as a wrapper. However that seems a bit much to achieve your goal. Regards, Chris White
