What is FreeplaneJrubyInstaller

Its an addon to add support for .rb (ruby) scripts in Freeplane, so that you can use .groovy .js and .rb scripts

Freeplane supports .groovy and .js (javascript) scripts out-of-the-box. This addon adds support for .rb (ruby) scripts, enabling you to use:

<freeplane-user-dir>/scripts/my_ruby_script.rb besides .groovy and .js scripts

It does this by using internally the Jruby interpreter, which is capable of running ruby scripts with access to Java objects (Freeplane-java-objects!)
