Subject: Re: share ruby small app

Not much choice, I'm afraid.

If it's small and not too dependent on Ruby magic, you could write it in
another language in order to compile it.  If the end-users' PCs have Perl
installed, there's a likely target.

Otherwise, consider installing Ruby!  Can't hurt that much, can it? :)

Others will hopefully comment on a rb2c project that will allow you to compile
your script, but it's beyond my experience.
