Installation of GTK and GLADE for Windows

After going thru the steps outline here,
http://ruby-gnome2.sourceforge.jp/hiki.cgi?Install+Guide+for+Windows,
I'm getting the following error messages when I test the installation
as indicated in step #4. I checked and made the necessary changes to
the PATH environment variable. Ideas anyone?

C:>ruby -e "require 'gtk2'"
c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/glib2.rb: line 44

I had the same error here, try to download and install this version of
GTK:
http://gladewin32.sourceforge.net/modules/wfdownloads/visit.php?cid=12&lid=104
at least:
require 'gtk2'
doesn't errorize :slight_smile:

That's much better, thanks!
