Mondrian and RubyScript2Exe
(RubyScript2Exe is a utility that creates a single binary file containing everything needed
to run a ruby program, including Ruby itself. The following are instructions from Mark
Felt, who was kind enough to get it working, with my notes in italics.)
- Use 'rubyscript2exe' to create an executable (still needs a tweak!) (Execute
rubyscript2exe Mondrian.rbw and close Mondrian when it runs)
- Copy the executable to a new directory.
- Extract the files from the executable. (I used
Mondrian.exe --eee-justextract)
- _Most Important_: Copy the 'icons' & 'images' from the Mondrian IDE to the extracted 'apps' directory.
- Edit the extracted 'apps.eee' file. (My file was just 'app.eee')
- Remove these two lines: 'd apps' & 'f apps/Mondrian.rbw' (Again, for me it was just 'app' in all cases.)
- Add 'r apps' somewhere _before_ the last line in 'apps.eee' (i.e. _DO NOT_ add it as the last line!!!) (Just 'app' again.)
- In the directory you extracted the files from the created executable, run: 'eee apps.eee Mondrian'. (I had success with
eeew app.eee Mondrian.exe Mondrian_new.exe.)
You should now have a new executable which is completely self contained and should work anywhere. (I tested my copy on a minimalistic copy of Windows XP.)
