I had hope to simultaneously release installers
for an updated version of Ruby 1.8.2 stable *and*
the new 1.8.3 preview1, but there appears to be some
delay for Matz in releasing 1.8.3 preview1. So I am
releasing the updated stable version now.

This release of the One-Click Ruby Installer for
Windows is built from Ruby 1.8.2 final. It mostly
upgrades included extensions and applications to
their most recent versions.

There is one notable addition: fxri 0.3.2.
Be sure to try it (if you use FreeRIDE, fxri
is also embedded into FreeRIDE) because it is
wonderfully addictive! fxri combines a nice
interactive search interface to the Ruby docu-
mentation along with an interactive ruby
session (irb) -- all wrapped up in a nice GUI
shell.

Changes Since 1.8.2-14 Final:
- Added fxri 0.3.2
- Updated FXRuby 1.2.6
- Updated FreeRIDE to 0.9.4
- Updated RubyGems to 0.8.10
- Created start menu shortcuts for RubyGems gem_server
   and viewing the RDoc for installed gems.
- Included new build of readline 4.3.2
   (I hope this fixes readline problems)
- Included user-submitted irb patch
- Included ruby/misc/ruby-electric.el from Ruby 1.9
- Included TestUnit patch needed by Rails

Enjoy!
