Hans, Idris, The only thing I know about Ruby is you used to install it in Windows so that Context thru Miktex would work. So, how do I get rid of the gems? D. On Aug 27, 2008, at 4:31 AM, Hans Hagen wrote:

All,
A bit frustrated as I cannot seem to get a mswincontext scite combination going. I gave up on: http://pragma-ade.com/context/ install/mswintex.zip. I got absolutely nowhere with the installation and trying to connect scite.
mswintex is just a zipped minimal
So, I just downloaded: http://pragma-ade.com/context/install/ mswincontext.zip
that one has also scite, perl and ruby + some more
After extracting to c:\context, I ran the file first-setup.bat, which proceeded to install a lot of files. Was this a correct thing to do? Strange, as the distribution size was already huge. It would really help to have a readme.txt in this distribution with installation directions.
After first-setup was complete, I ran cscite.bat. Scite opened. Good! I entered the usual test file:
\starttext Hello, World! \stoptext
And saved as test.tex.
one option is to let setuptex be executed when you open a cmd prompt and then start scite from that (it's what i do here, since i do much on the console)
then scite knows in which env it lives
Then I tried Tools->Compile, which resulted in this error mesage:
texmfstart concheck test.tex ruby: no such file to load--ubygems (LoadError)
might be some conflict between the ruby in the zip and the installed one; this gems stuff overloads the 'require' function in an incompatible way (as idris suggested, get rid of gems)
