Well, actually, I did no such thing. I posted the original question and
acknowledged the quick answers back in early *July*, as the thread display
of the Google Usenet archive would suggest. Perhaps the ruby-talk server or
some other mechanism has seen fit to repost my original query?

In any event, I've moved on to using dual-boot systems and have no end of 
puzzlements on the differences between Windows and Linux systems -- but
happily when to use 'rb' and 'wb' is no longer an issue.

Thanks to all who posted anyway,
Tyler
