Viewing output

Hi,

I just started with Ruby. At home (WinXP) there are no problems so far,
but here at work (Win2000), I can’t see my programs output in SciTE’s
output panel. Any idea? Also, on the output window that opens when I
start a program, I can’t see the error messages, because it closes after
termination of the program … is there a way to keep it open?

Thanks!

Ralf.

It has nothing to do with OS.
Ruby 1.7.2 has this problem, Ruby 1.7.3-7 does not.

Thanks for the reply! It is in both cases (home and work) 1.67-4. I
thought 1.7.x were versions in development (as stated on the download
site) and not yet stable. So I’ll try and install 1.7.3-7 anyway.
Cheers,
Ralf.

I may work in the 1.6.x range - it just appears to have been introduced as a
bug at some point.
Actually I suspect it is just the property settings of Scite, so if you have
installed a more recent version of scite, this may have this effect.
Reinstalling Ruby might then fix it.
I had two installations where the problem occured on XP but not on W2K.
Installing latest Ruby on XP resolved the issue.
