Subject: Difference between using irb and window promt

Hi all,

I just write a script to change the filenames within a folder. Out of
curiosity I want to see the differences bewteen using irb and window
promt. I run the script from the window promt and I get what I want. But
when I paste all the codes to irb and run from there I get error
messages. In theory there is no defference using either irb or running
from window promt.

Can anyone there explain it?

Thanks,

Li

I run the same script from irb first, then run it from window promt
