[MacRuby-devel] rSpec for MacRuby

[Laurent Sansonetti]

That would probably be the best solution in the interim.

I personally install all of my MacRuby gems in ~/.gem/macruby/1.9.0  
(which is the default directory if you don't run macgem under sudo).  
This way /usr/bin is not altered and when I want to run a MacRuby gem  
helper I simply append ~/.gem/macruby/1.9.0/bin to my $PATH.
