Well... I don't have a windoze box to test out on at all, so you'll 
have to be my eyes and ears on this. The first is that I'm kinda 
expecting ruby to deal w/ unix file paths. I don't know if it does or 
what recourse I have available to me if it doesn't. The second is that 
/tmp might not even exist on windoze, I have no idea, so what is the 
alternative. This second point is kinda moot, as I really need to 
switch it to the user's home directory. This would involve using the 
HOME environment variable on POSIX systems. Is that true for MS 
products? I was planning on using HOME/.ruby_inline. Does that even 
make sense in your world? Please advise.
