I managed to compile the latest stable snapshot this way: set MAKE=nmake nmake There seems to be an issue with backslashes and miniruby. If you don't set MAKE, miniruby is called with something like --make="c:\Programme\VS8\VC\bin\nmake.exe", and the backslashes get lost somehow. - Günter -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
