starting another programs from inside.

[Jeffrey Bowen]

I searched ruby-talk but I could not find the answer.
I want to start one program from inside another.

test.rb
puts 'hi'

test1.rb
`test.rb`

test1.rb results => Exec format error - test.rb
(Errno::ENOEXEC)

Thanks
Jeff

I think you need to make test.rb executable, which is what
Errno::ENOEXEC is telling you.

Or you can use

`ruby test.rb`

Of course, this assumes that the ruby executable is actually called ruby. B=
y=20
the way, using the backtick syntax, the output of the executed program is n=
ot=20
displayed on the screen, but is returned as a result of the `` method call.=
=20
If you the output from the executed program to be displayed, you can use th=
e=20
system method.

load "test.rb"
or
require "test.rb"
