Sounds sweet (though I've noticed it is currently only for non-Windows).

One request, though: I noticed that there is a file simply named 
'java.rb' that is installed in the root of site_ruby/1.8.  Since this is 
a pretty generic file name, and others may write Java-related Ruby libs, 
the file should either be renamed or placed in its own subdirectory to 
avoid any possible conflicts.

Thanks,


James
