Response to: Can't include Appscript
Hi, stiang - I don't have a good answer. With RubyGems, you're on your own. Try the installation method I described and see if that works better for you. The article describes the installation method that I was able to get to work. It doesn't talk about methods that I wasn't able to get to work.

  Thanks, the method you described does indeed work. I just thought I'd check that I wasn't doing something obviously wrong.
  
  On to the examples!

  The following worked fine with the gem. Rubyforge has more info.
  
  #!/usr/bin/env ruby
  begin
  require 'rubygems'
  rescue LoadError
  end
  require "appscript"
  include Appscript
  puts app('Finder').name.get
