It appears that libruby, ruby.h, etc. doesn’t come with Jaguar. Anyone have  
any suggestions of where to get them or how to embed ruby in Jaguar?

Thanks,

Rod Schmidt

It appears they do:

[luc:~] % locate ruby.h  
/usr/lib/ruby/1.6/powerpc-darwin6.0/ruby.h

[luc:~] % locate libruby  
/usr/lib/ruby/1.6/powerpc-darwin6.0/libruby.a

Not to post off topic; but, is anyone working on a RubyCocoa modle?

Well that’s strange. If I do the same I my box there is nothing. Have you  
installed something that would put those files there?

In the meantime, would you be so kind as to email me everything in  
/usr/lib/ruby/1.6/powerpc-darwin6.0? Mine is completely empty.

Thanks,

Rod Schmidt
