Hello!

IIRC, there’s a tool called rb2exe or ruby2exe. Use google to find it.

For Unix, there’s no way, unless you use the rb2c converter, that converts a
ruby source to C source, and then compile it using C. The problem is that
this converter is not full-featured and the C source may not work sometimes.
