All- Can anyone give me some general tips and gotchas for how to migrate
Ruby code from Windows to UNIX (apart from taking care to convert drive
mappings)? A recent program I ran on Windows in a about 20 seconds runs
in about 1 second on a UNIX box. Only problem is, no work gets done.
Expected output files aren't created. No errors are thrown, but screen
"puts" for monitoring progress are sporatic.

General tip: Watch out for alternate EOL characters.
Mostly an issue when the shebang line has a trailing ^M
The tip-off is usually a "bad interpreter" error message or something
along those lines.
More specific to your case: Try running with tracing:
% ruby -rtracer code.rb
Also verify file and directory permissions, though these things should
raise errors.
And turn on warnings.
