Thanks Tim.

None of that worked.

Here is the script that I have:

#!/usr/bin/ruby
puts "Hello, Matz!"



>>>here is info on the ruby path and the permissions of matz.rb

Pinky:rubes pink$ which ruby
/usr/bin/ruby
Pinky:rubes pink$ ls -l
total 8
-rwxr-xr-x@ 1 pink  staff  41 Nov 27 08:00 matz.rb

>>>this is what i get when i try to run the script

Pinky:rubes pink$ matz.rb
-bash: matz.rb: command not found

>>>this is what i get when i put ./ in front, just a prompt no out put

Pinky:rubes pink$ ./matz.rb
Pinky:rubes pink$


>>> this always works as it should

Pinky:rubes pink$ ruby matz.rb
Hello, Matz!


the ./ made a difference but I am puzzled why there is no output.


Thanks all!
