I'm having a lot of problems just running an executable local file with
a Ruby script. I go to the directory with the file (call the executable
file 'mkplots'), then try to run that file.
I've tried all sorts of system and back-quoted commands, and nothing
works. If I go to the UNIX command line and simply type the file name,
it runs fine.
What am I doing wrong?? Why doesn't the following command work:
system( "mkplots" )
--- or ---
`mkplots`
