Getting ruby-debug commands to work in windows environment
If you find that after installing ruby-debug in windows, you don't see "continue",
"raise", or "disassemble" ... it's because those commands on the file system have
an uppercase "RB" file extension. SURPRISE!
Fix it.
1. cd to where your ruby-debug gem is installed
2. then cd to
\cli\ruby-debug\commands
3. change them capital letters to lower
move continue.RB continue.rb
move disassemble.RB disassemble.rb
move raise.RB raise.rb

Sorry about that. This was fixed in SVN and there is a ruby-debug 0.10.5rc1 "release candidate" gem http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=1900
