There is access to tutorial through the menus. I know the main things, opening a file, finding a word, macros, opening two windows... basics from ten years ago which have not changed apparently. > M-x ruby-mode > M-x run-ruby The first command exists and runs. The second command is not in the list of commands my install can access. > Try this: > M-x compile ruby myscript.rb I tried compile from the menu, erased make -k and wrote ruby myscript.rb ruby dudruby.rb /usr/lib/ruby/1.6/tk.rb:7:in `require': No such file to load -- tcltklib (LoadError) from /usr/lib/ruby/1.6/tk.rb:7 from dudruby.rb:1:in `require' from dudruby.rb:1 Compilation exited abnormally with code 1 at Thu Nov 17 13:26:24 So emacs is not finding tcltklib. That may be a mac issue. I know the mac has a path, somehow I need to find this library and add it to the path. Thank you Christian Neukirchen for great progress. Hugh Sasse, a lot of your links don't connect right now. the editor I wanted to use is xcode with rubycocoa, but I have the same problem, it does not find tcltklib. Only the terminal ruby finds it.
