No, but if you want to open a PowerPoint file, why not run PowerPoint?

Perhaps you could tell us what you are trying to accomplish. Do you want a
way to orchestrate the display of PowerPoint slides using Ruby? Do you want
to create new PowerPoint slides using Ruby?

In other words, how does Ruby fit into this picture?

The online version of Programming Ruby (aka 'the pickaxe') has an item
on processing an excel file using the Win32OLE library.

My guess would be that, as another component of the MS 'Office' family,
handling a PowerPoint file can't be that different?
