Hi all,
I just upgraded ruby, I have not used it before but am working
myway towards messing with AJAX (like everyone else on the planet).
I installed RubyGems and...
    (In case there are any Gems developers listening, the she-bang line
     in the bin/ scripts all are hard coded to "#!/usr/bin/env ruby".
     Our installation has ruby in /usr/local/...  Obviously the
     configure/setup stage ignored these.  FYI)
then used it to install Rails
    $ ./gem install rails
    Attempting local installation of ''rails''
    Local gem file not found: rails*.gem
    Attempting remote installation of ''rails''
    Updating Gem source index for: http://gems.rubyforge.org

    Installing RDoc documentation for actionpack-1.8.1...
    Installing RDoc documentation for actionmailer-0.9.1...
    Installing RDoc documentation for actionwebservice-0.7.1...
The docs then say to run "rails /path/to/application".  ''K,
I''d be
happy to but I''m not seeing a rails executable anywhere.  Where should
that be?
Where are the docs kept?
All the best,

''rails'' is itself a ruby script, but should be in the path under the same prefix as ''gem''.> Where are the docs kept?/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/doc> > All the best, > > -- > Dean Karres / karres at itg dot uiuc dot edu / www.itg.uiuc.edu > > Imaging Technology Group / Beckman Institute > University of Illinois > 405 North Mathews / Urbana, IL 61801 USA > _______________________________________________ > Rails mailing list > Rails-1W37MKcQCpIf0INCOvqR/iCwEArCW2h5@public.gmane.org > http://lists.rubyonrails.org/mailman/listinfo/rails >Jason

This use of env is more portable than hard-coding the path to ruby in each script. Ray
