In explorer, if you go to folder options, and click advanced for the
.rb extension, you will see that it uses the following to open a .rb
file:
"c:\ruby\bin\ruby.exe" "%1" %*

You can get the windows to stick around if you change that to:
cmd.exe /K "c:\ruby\bin\ruby.exe %1 %*"

I wouldn't recommend it tho, since you won't be able to accept files
with spaces and justhaving the windows stick around is nasty. Better
run your script from a cmd instance.
