Hi Lawrence, I am not an expert on Windows, and generally - ruby is painfully slow in this environment, so you should consider switching to Linux or Mac OS if you want to use ruby with comfort in long term, but I think I know what's your problem.
Seems to me that InstantRails opens console windows for you, and sets some environmental variables, like PATH to make it possible to use ruby. If you type "irb" in normal console window, you'll get "no such command" or similiar, while started from menu - will spawn irb for you. You might need to navigate to your rails project in command line, like: > cd C:\myprojects\rails\blog and run console: > ruby script\console Please let me know if this helps, Hubert On 25 Paź, 22:35, "Sal e.
