What is an RB file?
An RB file is a software program written in Ruby, an object-oriented scripting language. Ruby is designed to be simple, efficient, and easy to read. RB files can be edited with a text editor and run using Ruby.
More Information
Ruby is available in several different versions, or "gems," including Ruby on Rails, Mongrel, and Capistrano.

How to open an RB file
Because RB files are XML files, you can open and edit them in any text editor, including:
- Microsoft Notepad (Windows)
- Apple TextEdit (Mac)
- Github Atom (cross-platform)
Then, provided you still have access to Rosebud, you can use your RB file as a Rosebud configuration file by placing it in the directory specified in Rosebud's CfgPath registry setting.
