Yes it could certainly work. In my Nudge script in diagnostic mode,
under Windows, it generates an email to me will all the environment
information. All the user has to do is hit send.
As far as doing it automatically, or by putting up a "bugsplat" type
of dialog, I'm pretty sure that could be done too. With the
WebDialog, or even with openRL, a form could be called on a server
anywhere, passing the infomation. All the Ruby script would have to
do is set up the begin/rescue/end routine, with all the error
collection and server connection stuff in the rescue clause. Sounds
like a fun project. I might play with this today. It would give me
a chance to test the Apache server I have running on my localhost.
Good idea!
