I have a file, a non-ruby executable or zip file, and I want to trigger
the standard "Save file As" dialog.
What is the RoR way to do this?

I have scoured the net and the only think I can come up with is some
Javascript that gets triggered when the user clicks on an image.
function my_onclick()
{
alert('This is an alert');
var url='/LaunchBrowser.zip';
// window.location = url
window.open(url,'Download');
};
The javascript runs but it opens a new browser tab/window with the
following error:
Routing Error
No route matches "/LaunchBrowser.zip" with {:method=>:get}

Surely there must be a simple way to enable the user to download a file
that they want to get and that I want to give them.
