Subject: [ help ] Ruby WM with C ext.

Hello, thank you for reading my post. My question is, how do I go about
creating a C extension with Ruby? The reason I ask is because I recently
found a window manager source code,
http://paste.lisp.org/display/47144/raw, but I could not figure out how
to get it set up and installed.

I read around, and all I could find out was that I needed to create
several files called extconf.rb & <file>.c. Then run the extconf.rb and
build the extension with make. But I am still confused, do I need to
actually make some sort of plugin with the <file>.c in order to have it
run the primary ruby source?

Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.
