Hi,
you' ve already installed fxruby? Then just try the tutorials. Notice the 'require 'fox'' statement. Perhaps you need to change that to fox12 or fox14, according to your installed ruby version. You then can run your fox apps like common ruby scripts.
Alex.

Hello and thank you very much for your attention ,in which directory
should I use require ? should I use windows dos prompt?
sincerely yours Mohsena

When you' ve installed ruby on 2K, you can double-click your script file. You don' t need to give a path by require.

Hello and thank you very much for your attention:
I use 'require 'fox12'' and 'require 'fox'14' and it didn't work and
it send me back this error:require is not recognized as an internal or
external command,operable or batch file

Did you use the One-Click-Installer for Windows?

 

[Fernando Allen]

If you installed ruby with the One-Click-Installer for Windows, try
using this to require the FxRuby lib:

require 'rubygems'
require_gem 'fxruby'

While we're at it, did anyone else encounter a problem where FOX dialog
windows open notably off the top left edge of the screen? I've had that
happen with the FreeRIDE options dialog and some of the widget sample
ones when I use a theme with Extra Large 120dpi fonts.
