How to invoke new (Ruby) compiler / interpreter ? Console problem in 4.2 ?
Submitted by itsme213 on Wednesday, 27 October, 2004 - 20:50
I am using 4.2 on Windows 2K.

On the DOS command line I can type:
ruby myFile.rb
and it will run, show errors, show output, etc.

I have tried using the Console, and typing in "ruby myFile.rb" and I see nothing. No output, no errors. The little "spinner" icon starts spinning, presumably to show some process is running.

I wonder if my Console plug-in is working right. If I type "cd" it shows the result fine. If I type "dir /w" it does nothing, and again the spinner spins.

Help. What do I need to do?

Since dir /w is not working

Since dir /w is not working I think you may need to re-install the plugin...

Under certain circumstances the Console will not work as expected. I have been using Ruby, C and Java lately....If you program "myFile.rb" attempts to do input from the keyboard it may cause the Console to return with -1 error. Because, the console cannot accept IO in that fashion. But for output to the screen (like "dir /w") the Console should work fine 100% of the time.
