[Suggestion] Including Ruby in XAMPP

[alucard01]

I would like to suggest apachefriends to include Ruby in the coming XAMPP version, or addon for XAMPP.

Since I think it may be more flexible for user who good at, or going to learn, a new programming language by using the same web server/platform, without doing other installation which may sometimes cause the whole server collapse....

Thanks for interesting.

Where is the problem. Just download Ruby for Win32 and extract it in a directory of your choice.

BTW:
AFAIK there is no native "mod_ruby" available for Windows.

Please excuse me. I have found ruby-lang.org but seems there didn't have the package you said. Can you please tell me where do you get it?

Thank you very much for your reply.

[alucard01]
