Hello!

After:

require 'tk'

Answer:

\<internal:lib/rubygems/custom\_require\>:29:in `require': no such file to  
load --  
tk (LoadError)  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;from \<internal:lib/rubygems/custom\_require\>:29:in `require'  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;from C:/Ruby192/prog/rub\_by.rb:1:in `\<main\>'

What is the problem?  
&nbsp;&nbsp;Please describe how all the "build" in windows?

Have you installed Ruby with RubyInstaller? You have to enable tk  
during installation, then.
