Using proper casing will work:
>>> System::Console.write_line("Test")
Test
=> nil
The casing you're using yields:
>>> system::console::writeline("Test")
:0: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2147483647) (ArgumentError)
Since "system" is Kernel#system. MRI yields a similar type of error also, so
the error reporting isn't at fault (though the (1 for 21...) message is a bit
confusing:
irb(main):002:0> system::console::writeline("Test")
ArgumentError: wrong number of arguments
from (irb):2:in `system'
from (irb):2
