It seems we have a misunderstanding of semantics.  I apologize, and I 
take the blame.  I believe I can clear this up rather quickly.

I have understood that these programs do not technically compile since 
before your explanations.  I used the word compile only because I saw 
the author of RubyScript2Exe call his program a compiler.  At the time, 
I didn't know a better term for it.  I apologize for not making this 
clear before.  From your helpful response, it seems the best term is 
package.  I would not at all mind saying package instead of compile to 
describe this.

I understand all your detailed explanations.  Thank you.

In my previous attempts at using Google, I didn't find any I wanted to 
try.  However, I took your excellent advice of searching for threads 
that discuss it, and found Gosu.  Thanks!
