Hi, I am using ruby 1.6.4 (2001-06-04) [i386-cygwin] , it's for windows and it's alpha. Reading and using the tutorial from programming ruby, I came across the following example def durationInMinutes=(value) ...... I put in some extra white space like this def durationInMinutes = (value) ...... I got the following result D:\ruby\ont\Song.rb:14: parse error def durationInMinutes =(value) Now it looks like a bug to me, but I'm to much of a newbie comments? Bye, Z
