I see in a lot of the tutorials and how to pages, they use the following, or something similar

ruby C:\test.rb

Which would parse test.rb to the interpreter and ... execute the script. But how is this done a on a windows? Ruby isn't a recognized internal command (as per the DOS output)?

I know how to do all these things on Linux, and its as simple as... alas Windows is completely confusing at times :)
