Hi

I have just discovered ruby and was interested to see what its 
mathematical capabilities were, and also being mainly a Windows XP user, 
i decided to setup using the one-click installer.

I have placed the narray.so in the C:\ruby\lib\ruby\1.8\i386-mswin32 
directory
and have tried running a mandelbrot sample that i found here 
http://narray.rubyforge.org/demo/mandel.html.en.

Cut/Copy the example into the RDE i get the follewing error,

c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/i386-mswin32/narray.so: no such file to load -- 
narray_ext.rb (LoadError)
	from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in 
`require'
	from C:/Documents and Settings/Boz/Desktop/mand.rb:1
Completed(1)

Is there a path that i have to set somewhere or something else?
also the original example uses a library called nimage to display the 
mandelbrot set, this doesnt seem to be available for the one-click 
installer from what i can tell. Are there any other ways that i can 
display the image using Ruby?

I have a very strong Matlab background and am just curious to see what i 
can do with this new thing called Ruby.

Any help is appreciated.

cheers
B
