Passing arguments to 'env ruby' on OS X

[Jim Freeze]

When using env on the shebang line,
how to I pass arguments to Ruby under OS X?

Doing the following gives me an error on OS X, but
works on FreeBSD and Sun:

% cat w.rb
#! /usr/bin/env ruby -w

% puts "hi"

./w.rb
env: ruby -w: No such file or directory

#! /usr/bin/env ruby
$VERBOSE = true

Or you can use /bin/sh instead of /usr/bin/env.

#!/bin/sh
# -*- ruby -*-
exec ruby -wx "$0" "$@"
#!ruby

#!/bin/sh
# -*- ruby -*-
exec ruby -wx "$0" "$@"
#!ruby

Will this work if I run "ruby myscript.rb" on a Windows box?

If not, is it possible to make that case work?

Do you mean whether it works as a script directly?

#! /bin/sh
# -*- ruby -*- # just for editors
[ ] || 'eval' 'exec ruby -wx "$0" "$@"'
#!ruby
puts "hi"

If you want a way to make a batch file from a script, look at
"ruby_bin_dosish" portion in instruby.rb.

I don't guess it is possible to merge ruby/shell/batch.
