  2. Scroll to the Options for Your OS • I suggest the one-click installer.

  3. Adding Ruby Support to Eclipse • There is a Ruby plugin for Eclipse, just like there is a Java plugin. • Once you install the plugin, you can write and debug Ruby code like you write and debug Java code. • A good description of the process is at http://alliance.seas.upenn.edu/~matuszek/wiki/wiki700/index.php?n=Main.RDT • We will follow the steps given there.
