As Gavin said, that was user error. Leopard comes with a perfectly fine Ruby installation already. > and making you use two keystrokes for the more common operation > (moving to the beginning and the end of the lines), Get your facts straight, Phlip. In most Mac apps, Home and End *do* go to the beginning and end of the line. Generally Cmd-Home goes to the beginning of the file. (And on my laptop, there's no keystroke benefit anyway; Home and End need the Fn key, and because of the key layout, I can do Ctrl-A and Ctrl-E with one hand.) > Macs are indeed > God's > Gift to Usability! Absolutely. Linux is great for servers, but I'll take Mac OS for a desktop OS any day. And I have to say, Phlip, I really think that you are God's Gift to Testing, but I'm not sure why you feel it necessary to post mean-spirited, inaccurate information like this in other subject areas...
