There are also numerous tutorials in Ruby and in programming in general just a quick Google away. 3) The time taken depends on your current level of experience, your intelligence, your capacity for concentration, and most of all the time you're willing to dedicate to learning. You should be able to write simple scripts within a day and then gradually build larger or more complex programs over time. 4) I've never tried it myself but a quick search shows plenty of people running Ruby on QNX. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
