Hey guys.

I'm still pluging away at my mud, although I did drop learning how to code for a bit when I was unable to find someone to teach me how.

I'm back at it though, and I've decided to work with Ruby.

I redownloaded Ruby, and got it set up. I used to have it working fine on my computer, but someone deleted it for some reason so I had to reinstall it.

I know that I had it working before, but now it doesn't want to.

I make programs, and then I go into the folder where they are (using Command Prompt) and type in: ruby [filename].rb like the tutorial says to, and like I remember I used to.

Now, however, it says: 'ruby' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program, or batch file.

I seem to remember that last time I tried Ruby, I had to go in and add something to the 'system' line of text in the Settings>Control Panel area, but I can't find any instructions on that, or remember where I got them from the first time.

My computer system is Windows XP Pro.
