Hi Brett,

I've also lost well over a productive hour getting ruby, gems, etc. upgraded on my system so I could run this script. It didn't like that I updated to Snow Leopard since installing Ruby.

In the end, this script runs well from the command line. Very cool.

However when I put it in textexpander, I get no output. Just a chirp.

I know you're not textexpander tech support, but any quick thoughts? Some other ruby scripts do work, like your ,,sub and ,,enc scripts.

thanks.

You have the entire script in your Snippet, and it's set to Shell type, I assume. And it works from the command line, so it executes fine. I'm wondering if there's a setting I don't know about or something. What does the chirp mean on your? Is that a success or failure sound?
