You can use Exerb (http://exerb.sourceforge.jp/index.en.html) fow
windows platfirm to distribute client side Ruby applications. The main
idea of Exerb, AFAIK, is to dump parsed syntax tree and store it inside
executable.
p.s. This will be wonderful if official Ruby interpreter can do same
thing by itself.
Python, BTW, can store compiled programs in *.pyc files, and load it
when original source file is not changed.
