Sathish,

The error you face is not a Ruby problem. What happens when you type in
Sathish in a command prompt? Try opening a command prompt in windows, and
type in Sathish. You will get a "Bad Command Or Filename" or something like
that. Why do you think this happens? Why does the command line not recognize
the name Sathish?

Jayanth
