Answer 1

void runScript()
{
    using (Process p = new Process())
    {
        ProcessStartInfo info = new ProcessStartInfo("ruby C:\rubyscript.rb");
        info.Arguments = "args"; // set args
        info.RedirectStandardInput = true;
        info.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
        info.UseShellExecute = false;
        p.StartInfo = info;
        p.Start();
        string output = p.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd();
        // process output
    }
