Ruby Tk and Print outs

ruby-talk

Hello,
Three questions. Please help me.

  1. Problem in ruby-1.8.0 with the dbi and dbd. I use mysql but it is working fine in ruby-1.6.0 but in ruby-1.8.0 it is making problem. How can I uninstall 1.8.0 and make 1.6.0 again?

  2. Sometimes it is very difficult to use Ruby/Tk for proper documentation. It is not confortable for me for my VB background. But it is really challenging. But in the deadline it is quite a task to complete the front end with Ruby/Tk. Is there any solution or good documentation?

  3. I think I have to install ruby in windows. Though I want to install my software(written in Ruby) in Linux but if I want to use it in Windows how can I make print outs of the reports which I have to generate from the software? I normally make the output in a text file and make system call to open it in notepad and make print out from there. But how to get the fonts in print outs ? Is there any other solution??

Please help me.
Many thanks in advance.

You can have both versions on the same box ,
just change the #!/shebang line to point to the wanted version.

-r.
