Subject: ruby & activeTcl run solely from a usb flash drive

All,

My goal is to run a ruby (gui/tk) from a usb flash drive.
I have ruby (for windows) and Active Tcl installed on a usb flash drive.
I would like to plug this into a windows os machine and not disrupt the 
windows os machine by making any changes to environment settings, and be 
able to run a ruby program using Active Tcl library for the gui.  I have 
been able to run a ruby program (without gui) like this, but have not 
been able to make the Active Tcl library available for the gui.

When I use this line from a bat file located on the usb flash drive:
\ruby\bin\ruby.exe  -I \tcl\bin -I \ruby\bin -I \tcl\lib -rlibrary 
\tcl\lib\tcl8.4 -rlibrary \tcl\lib\tk8.4 test.rb

The error I get is:
\ruby\bin\ruby.exe: Permission denied -- /tcl/lib/tcl8.4 (LoadError)

Is there a way to get the Active Tcl libraries available to the usb ruby 
without making any os environment changes?

Thanks, Sari
