Looks like Fredo's Additional Folder plugin isn't setup correctly. Maybe ask here to get Fredo's attention

Hi,

Fredo's is pointing out the load errors from other rubies, it's meant to...

the errors are all SketchUp example rubies.

It looks to me like you moved those out of their folders...

Do you have a folder called Examples? in the plugins folder,

if not make one and put those into it, except ocean ruby which should be in Ocean folder

if you do have 'Examples' folder you could try changing it to 'examples' i.e. lowercase.

failing that...
if you put the example.rb into the Examples folder [both are in the plugins folder] that will stop the messages.

also do the same for ocean_extension.rb into Ocean folder...

if your trying to learn ruby [which is what they are really for] load them from ruby console and see what errors you get then.

or it may be a Lion issue...
