On Ubuntu does Shoes require Ruby1.8 or Ruby1.9?

Question

I have only installed Ruby1.9 on my machine. Have some kind of problems with the programs I am trying to write using Shoes. Am wondering if this is a version issue.

I am trying to do some stuff over ssl.

Yes I was. I asked that in another question. Turned out Shoes doesn't support ssl. — Ram, Feb 26 '09 at 14:31

Shoes comes with its own Ruby version embedded in the script you download. It is completely self-contained as far as I can tell.

How or where did you get that information. This could be very useful for me to debug ? – Ram Jan 02 '09 at 10:22
I think it was mentioned on the mailing list. Also, if you do a ./shoes2.run --help it will give you instructions on how to extract the whole directory, then you can look at the embedded files more closely. – Lolindrath Jan 05 '09 at 17:00
