Rails - Jul 2007 - InstantRails and ImageScience on Windows

Has anyone successfully used ImageScience whilst running using
InstantRails on Windows?   Out of the box I don''t believe it''s
possible given that ImageScience uses RubyInline which itself requires
a C compiler, which of course Windows doesn''t ship with.

Unless I''m missing something obvious, does anyone have any suggestions
for how I can get this up and running, or is it a matter of installing
Cygwin and the Rails stack manually?


Cheers, Olly
