Is anybody working on a ruby compiler (rb->exe)

FWIW, I just tried the exerb compiler with the latest Ruby release, it
installed with no trouble. And I got it to compile a very trivial Ruby example
and it works! :wink:

is what you need.

Coolโ€ฆ but are there any english docs on exerb? How exactly does it
create a binary? (the quick 10000 foot overview please)

OK, to answer my own post, I overcame my laziness and downloaded the tar
file. There is an english readme file. It appears that this only works
for Windows (the exe part of the name should have been an indication).

Looks pretty straightforward on Windows, though.

I wonder how difficult it would be to get this to work under Linux (and
other Unices)โ€ฆ

Well, it cross compiles from Linux to windows out of the box. This was my
only need for it. :slight_smile:
