Mohit,

I thought this would work also, but for some reason it is not. I
currently can run any ruby script from anywhere. The only issue I have
is when its a script run from the command line that needs args. The
script still runs, but I can tell that the args are not being read. If
I run the same script with ruby, it works fine. The only things I can
think of that might be causing this are:
1) ruby may think that the arguments are meant for the interpreter
instead of my script. So they are being consumed by the interpreter
and my script never sees them. Is there a way to tell ruby the the
args are not for the interpreter?
2) I am using the global array ARGV[x] to read in command line
arguments. Is there a better method.

The rubyscript2exe method is working, but is a bit cumbersome when I
have to make small changes. Being able to run the script with args
directly would be best for me.

Thanks Mohit!
