I just installed RubyGems 0.8.4, but now "requre 'RUDL'" raises this: irb(main):001:0> require 'RUDL' NameError: undefined method `print_centered' for class `RUDL::SFont' from (eval):113 from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:18:in `require' from (irb):1 This seems to have only affected RUDL. It used to work fine before installing RubyGems. What's this about? ruby 1.8.2 (2004-12-25) [i386-mswin32] Bill On Sun, 2 Jan 2005 01:36:13 +0900, Chad Fowler <chadfowler / gmail.com> wrote: > = Announce: RubyGems Release 0.8.4 > > Hello and Happy New Year!
