Win32 Utils

walter

Are there plans to include the Win32 Utils as part of the Windows One Click
Installer?

Will the win32 installer be updated anytime soon?
Are there any thoughts of including a binary along with the source for the
individual modules.

I know I need to download the MS Compiler, and do plan to do so, but haven't
yet, but would love to be able to use some of these utils, particularly the
Popen and the Shortcut.


Thanks,

Walt

That would be quite nice; I've been finding them quite useful.

There is an all-in-one Win32-utils binary bundle that comes with an
installer, no compiler is needed, which is how I got my copy installed.

They do have one, which is great, but it has not kept up with the new
modules. I am trying to show a colleague of mine, that a Ruby script would
be easier than his VB script, but I need to manipulate shortcuts, and the
shortcut module came out after the last release of the installer.

Hi Walter,

I've got binary versions of open3 and shortcut available at
http://rubyforge.org/frs/?g.... Just look for the "0.1.0-bin"
version of each.

They were built with VC++ 7 on Windows XP Pro. Let me know if they
don't work.

Regards,

Dan
