Hi Etienne

I am not too sure how helpful this will be because I looked around in the
shoes folder for an equivalent "ruby environment" specification.

   - C:\bin\ruby\v1.8\lib\ruby\1.8\i386-mswin32

It appears to be in the lib folder:

   - C:\bin\shoes\0.r1134\ruby\lib\i386-mswin32

You need to look at the config.h and the rbconfig.rb to ensure the build
parameters are going to work for the compiler you have.

However, I am thinking it 'failed to build' because your compiler doesn't
match the the compiler used to build Shoes.

Have a poke about.  The easiest method might be to install the same compiler
used to build shoes.  I'm presuming the rbconfig and config.h files are
set-up to build with the same compiler as the big parent shoe.exe.  ;-)

I'm also interested in this ... Can you let us know how it worked out for
you?

Cheers,
           Will
