Windows has a bad habit of closing ruby programs before you can see the output. The larger scripts should
run okay because they require user input, but the smaller ones are just commandline utilities. To use them,
open a command prompt and type "ruby alphabetize.rb notes.txt" (to alphabetize the contents of notes.txt) or
whatever script you want.

Sprachprofi, command prompt says 'ruby can't be recognized' even though I installed Ruby
1.9.3-p484. I'd be really grateful for any advice :)

What happens if you type "ruby -v"?
Which version of Windows do you have?

It says: "ruby is not recognized as an internal or external command".
I have Windows Vista.

Okay, this means that Ruby wasn't added to your PATH - in other words, you can only
access ruby.exe when you're in the Ruby folder, but you need to make it so that you can
access ruby from anywhere. Normally this is something that automatically happens during
installation; I'm not sure why it didn't.
Here are the instructions for adding Ruby to your PATH:
