Actually, I tried FreeRide, but it doesn't seem to work.

When I invoke it, it simply flashes onto the screen and
instantly vanishes.

I appreciate the comments.   Perhaps I should be a little
more clear.   Or, perhaps I need to understand Ruby
a little better.

I do understand that Ruby is interpreted.  The fxri window
works fine for console applications.   The problem is that
it does not have a save option in the window.

I am having some difficulty executing my Ruby
script from SciTE.

Python, also interpreted, seems to be easier to use,
so far.  I would like to use Ruby since I like the design
of the language better than Python.

I must be missing something in trying to set up the
environment.  It is probably so easy that I am just
making it hard because of my experience with so
many other languages.
