ruby of support in vim on windows

I am new to vim and would like to configure command-t plugin to work in vim 7.3. It says it doesn't have ruby support. Is there any way to configure vim to have ruby support on windows 7?

You can't configure vim to have ruby support (as in checking a box or changing an option). You have to download a distribution of vim with ruby support or download the sources and compile it yourself. Type

vim --version

If it says "-ruby" then you need to install a different vim version that has it supported (+ruby).

You can follow the step-by-step here: My own post or Official doc installation

I think you need to compile vim with --enable-rubyinterp flag.
Check if vim has support for ruby using :version in vi.

If that shows -ruby (no ruby support) then you will have to compile from vim source or fetch an installer which was compiled that way.

I guess that your problem is that you do not have ruby installed and that plug-in need it. Try installing ruby:
