Today I download jruby 1.6. I actually downloaded the source code and the
binary version.
I thought that the binary version only requires that certain files be placed
on a specific location.
I also did not find installation instructions.
The README file briefly talks about building jruby with *ant*.
Where can I find instructions that can tell me where to place the binary
that I downloaded?
Thank you

Hi,
did you take a look at that page ?
http://kenai.com/projects/jruby/pages/GettingStarted
it depends on what you want to do, but if you just want the runtime,
download the jruby-complete jar file, you can run it with "java -jar
jruby-completeXX.jar somerubyscript.rb"

You should really only need to download the binary version and put its
"bin" dir in your PATH somewhere. As long as there's a "java" command
available or a JAVA_HOME set, you should be good to go.
(by binary version, I mean the -bin download tarball, which unpacks to
a complete JRuby "home". In there you'll find bin/jruby and other
commands to get started)
