My box is Redhat Enterprise Workstation 3.0
Ruby 1.6.8 is already installed in Redhat

My diff.txt is generated when using diff command in linux.
Its output is: Files catalogue_1/A.txt and catalogue_2/A.txt differ
So I use Ruby to pick "catalogue_2/A.txt" out of that string and convert 
the file to unix format. (A.txt from server is downloaded to a linux and 
a windows machine, after that I want to check A.txt is the same. But it 
differs because linux and windows has different ending. So I have to 
convert windows ending to unix ending).
