Hi Miguel,
That is a very cool application. To insert your script's results
directly into the Org-mode buffer try changing your header line from
#+begin_src ruby :results output
to
#+begin_src ruby :results output raw
as this seems like the sort of thing which would be generally useful,
would you mind if it is added to the "Library of Babel"?
Best -- Eric
