ruby -cw  surely!

Ruby's error messages are horribly obscure compared with Perl's, which 
are really quite friendly. A typical one would be something like "(Blah 
blah blah) error. Maybe an unterminated string starting on line 42?" -- 
which it usually is. Or "Class Thing not found. Maybe you forgot to 
include Thing.pm?" -- which is usually the case.
