[QUOTE="pm-r, post: 1820058, member: 175845"] I never realized what [B]Ruby[/B] was actually for or why it would have been installed on my Mac. I just used [I]Find Any File.app[/I] (FAF) to search for anything containing 'Ruby' on my Mavericks volume and it shows several hundred files and folders, and I assume I can just delete them all to save drive space and surplus installed stuff I'll never need or probably never use. It looks like there are some other similar surplus software installed stuff the Mac OS Installer installed as well that really is [B]surplus[/B] to my needs. I assume most of it can be Trashed as well. Gheese, and to think I had been running what I thought was a fairly clean volume, and void of most [I][B]surplus stuff[/B][/I] on my boot volume. - Patrick ====== [/QUOTE]
