Hi Paul,

Unfortunately, I still get the same error message with those 2 lines. Any idea?

Any problems on Windows are a direct result of sloth and incompetence on
my part, rather than intentional malice.  I haven't done much console
development on Windows, and I don't have easy access to a Windows
machine for testing.

The URL in the original email was wrong and the gem had an accidental
dependency on Rubilicious.  I've fixed the latter and regenerated the
former.  Here's the URL:

  http://pablotron.org/files/gems/wirble-0.1.2.gem
  http://pablotron.org/files/gems/wirble-0.1.2.gem.asc

(Note: This version doesn't address the two issues you have below)

Hi, it should be one of the following forms:

  ri 'Object#object_id'
  ri Object.ri 'object_id'

It should definitely have a more graceful error message.  I'll add that
to my list of stuff to fix.

One out of three ain't bad! :)

I'm not familiar with the Windows console either.  I'll follow up on
some of the other URLs in this thread and see what I can find out.
