Usually I can put

#! /usr/bin/env ruby

in the first line of a script and it works fine.  However, this doesn't=20=

work:

#! /usr/bin/env ruby

class Hello
     attr_reader :msg
     def initialize
         @msg =3D "Hello, World"
     end
end

h =3D Hello.new
puts h.msg

$ hello
: No such file or directory

However,

ruby hello

works fine.  What am I missing?
