___________________
Files:

Binary:
  ruby_165_120S_2001dec14.mips.gz 

Library files:
  lib_ruby_165.tar.gz 
  lib_ruby_165_gzrb.tar.gz - compressed 

__________________________________________
Installation:

The ruby binary should be at any executable location, such as:
	/usr/bin/ruby
	/usr/local/bin/ruby

The library files need to be in the Ruby loadpath, such as:
	/usr/lib/ruby/1.6/
	/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.6/

To check what the Ruby loadpat ish, run this on the Agenda:
	ruby -e "puts \$LOAD_PATH"

______________
* Installation in user space:

On the workstation:
	# Some browsers do this automatically
	gunzip ruby_165_120S_2001dec14.mips.gz 
	rsync ruby_165_120S_2001dec14.mips agenda::root/usr/local/bin/
	rsync lib_ruby_165.tar.gz agenda::root/usr/local/lib/
	
On the Agenda VR3, as root:
	chmod a+rx /usr/local/bin/ruby
	cd /usr/local/lib/
	tar xzvf lib_ruby_165.tar.gz 
	chmod a+rx * -R
	rm lib_ruby_165.tar.gz 



______________
Library files:

In order to conserve space when installing Ruby on user flash space,
you might want to install the compressed version of the library files. 
This will induce some overhead on startup, but should reduce the space 
requirements with approx. half a megabyte. 
For this, just use the lib_ruby_165_gzrb.tar.gz file instead of 
lib_ruby_165.tar.gz

The library files also include "ri" documentation, which you may delete.
