[MacRuby-devel] macirb or not working with awesome_print

[Joshua Ballanco]

Hi Brad,

What's happening here is that the 'gem' command that ships with MacRuby is named 'macgem'. However, 'macirb' still looks at the same .irbrc file that the system 'irb' command does. So, if you've put in a require for awesome_print into your .irbrc, then 'macirb' will look for it but not find it.

Try running 'macgem install awesome_print' instead and let us know how it goes.

Cheers,

Josh
