That's normal. Instead of typing "script_name", type "./script_name".
Unless you alias or move ruby_test to somewhere in your exec path, that
is (and you probably don't want that).

This is a security feature of your OS/distribution and not about
Ruby.

Suppose you say something like

$ export PATH=.:"$PATH"

and the intruder would place a script named "ls" in the current
directory...

And, you may end up executing the possibly malicious script instead of
the original ls when you carelessly type 'ls'. Regarding the she-bang
line, I prefer to write '#!/usr/bin/env ruby' rather than to hard-code
the path of a ruby executable.

So your not supposed to just type ls at a prompt?

You shouldn't have '.' (the current) directory in the PATH where the shell
looks for programs to execute, because someone could replace the "real"
program with one in the current directory.

To the original problem:

a.) either ruby is not in /usr/local/bin
-> use `#!/usr/bin/env ruby` instead

b.) '.' is not in the PATH
-> don't change PATH, call your script using `./ruby_test`

c.) you're script is not executable
-> call `chmod +x ruby_test`

or any combination of the above.

He was saying that without this protection you might not want to. In
usual cases you do, because this protection exists. It's one of
several reasons why you need to set the path, set an alias or type in
the full path, if it's not a system command. It's a good thing.
