If you're using one of the latest one-click installers, this should
already work for you. Here are some things to check.
# make sure the path to ruby.exe is in your path system environment
variable
C:\>path
PATH=c:\ruby\ruby186\bin;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem
# make sure .rb and .rbw are set in the pathext system environment variable
# if you need to change a system environment variable, make sure you
# set it in the gui, and not with the set command. Otherwise the
# changes won't persist.
# Here's some info on how to do that: How To Manage Environment Variables in Windows XP - Microsoft Support
C:\>echo %pathext%
.COM;.EXE;.BAT;.CMD;.RB;.RBW;.VBS;.VBE;.JS;.JSE;.WSF;.WSH;.tcl;.PSC1
# make sure the file associations are there.
C:\>assoc .rb
.rb=rbFile
C:\>ftype rbfile
rbfile=c:\ruby\ruby186\bin\ruby.exe "%0" %*
