Hi Everyone,<br>
<br>
I have searched the web but have not found a good explanation on how to use<br>
gems in a MacRuby project. Is there a tutorial I am missing?<br>

<br>
We should definitely write a tutorial about that. The RubyGems support is pretty new so I don&#39;t think anybody tried yet to embed gems in a MacRuby app. At a glance I believe it would be a matter of installing the gem inside MacRuby.framework, embed it in the app then change the GEM_HOME environment variable.<br>

Oof. Changing the framework? Maybe I&#39;m not understanding what you&#39;re suggesting. Why would it not be enough to install all gems in a vendor/ directory and change GEM_HOME to there? Or something that would not involve embedding (eventually) all gems in use in all apps you&#39;re developing inside the MacRuby.framework...<br>
