Thank you for the great Xmas present!
-A.
Thank you matz.
To celebrate this release and a decennial language, I would release a
translation of a historic record; what is the root of the name “Ruby.”
If it would be your fun, I should be very happy.
Merry Christmas,

Subject: [ruby-dev:5173] Re: to_i, to_s Simple question
From: keiju@rational.com (Keiju Ishitsuka)
Extra: The desicive moment of the language name. [0]
[0] This is a footnote (except [0] ;-).
:
By the way, do you have considered the name of the language?
The subsidiary in Hitachi had struck the advertisement [3]
Well, Tish, if it’s like shell enough.
But I want a smarter name.
Toilet paper?
That’s Tissue
What does it mean?
implies nothing
Such a word cannot be found.
Can I interpret it? Something elliptical?
No, absolutely no meaning. Nuance is its all
It’s…
A meaning is made suitably later.
possible trick though.
And, considered for a language name which is designed
a bit ago to shelve, is Pit
“Hole”
What’s the heck?
erm, when considered it was some abbreviation, but…
forgotten
ruby
a jewelry name after all
put it alongside kanji?
why jewel’s name?
the influence of Mitsubishi? [4]
perl
I see
So why not rubie? it should [5]
But, perl is related to a shell.
Oh, I don’t know that
never noticed that
Possibly the arrival of thorough thought…
hmmm
What kind of shellfish can make pearl?
Any kind is OK
really?
Is it such a thing?
just with AKOYAGAI is beautiful
that’s it.
in English.
with oyster can make it also
what’s it?
in Japanese, KAKI
AKOYAGAI is said pearl oyster. useless
well then oyster
ruby is better.
I have seen coral somewhere
SANGO
somewhat i have heard it.
i remember there’s a soft such as coral draw
bisque is it
Nuance of coral is good.
bisque is cool, but sounds bad
Coral, it may likely be anywhere
sure it is…
something in OS?
Was it so? Although it sounds neat
Can you look at the yellow book? [6]
there’s Chorus and Clouds
How quick
nothing also in the Nikkei book [7]
hmm.
then suppose there’s not and decide to it?
Is it no need to look over besides OS?
Especially a language …
language –
and company name
trademark
Isn’t it OK just only to ask an editor? [8]
whether it’s there or not.
Let us decide the codename now
tentative one.
Ok.
What is your best up to now?
I’m content with coral.
I thought ruby is cool as a codename, isn’t it
Well. ruby is also good.
But, coral is also good
arrr
Soon after the chat (a mail from Mr. Matsumoto):
\item codename is ruby or coral*
coral has worse impression than perl (perhaps) so quit it.
I remember ruby is my birth stone… [9]
Well, then Ruby.
Hence the name Ruby (^^;;;
[1] At 24 Feb. 1993, in a private chat room.
This time Matz and Keiju are about 200 km far apart.
(And the chat is, of course, in Japanese. ;-)
See also [8].
[2] This translation itself is on the kind courtesy of
the conversators' (Matz & Keiju's) permission.
The workor (SugHimsi) sincerely thanks to them.
[3] Another story; no concern with the rest.
[4] Mitsubishi's trademark consists of three diamonds.
[5] Remember Perl is not straightly 'Pearl'.
[6] A commentary or a catalog of operating systems.
I couldn't determine the book.
[7] Ditto.
[8] They were making arrangements of their joint work
on object oriented programming book, which at last
wasn't published.
The work had a theme to develop a sample programming
language (of course object oriented one).
[9] Keiju speaking.
Acknowledgement: see [2].
That’s all, thank you.

I compiled OK under Solaris 2.8 just using ./configure with no
–enable-pthread option & everything was ok (got through tests fine with just 1
error in xml-soap part of test)
but If I do ./configure --enable-pthread I get same error as you.
