K. When borrowing someone's blog source, just re-tune dependencies.rb by hand. NP. The only reason I use windows is when I installed Linux on my notebook, I could not get VPN, Midi, or Sleep working. Even the earphone plug put up a fight! (Rest assured this would be the 4th consecutive notebook I have Linucized. At least the fan worked right!) So if I stay with Vista (with the theme set to Win95), I can VPN to our servers at work, and then use Linux thru CygWin's remote X. Blogging up all these irritations would use up all the time I'm otherwise devoting to researching. However, if RubyInline required a compiler at runtime, and if someone downloaded it into a virgin Windows box with the One Click Installer, wouldn't it break? -- Phlip --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "merb" group.
