I'm a very new programmer and was reffered to Ruby from a friend. I followed this great tutorial http://pine.fm/LearnToProgram/?Chapter=00 and got up to chapter 3. Something stoped working when trying to "gets" and know i get the following error messege for everything. ruby is not recgonized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. i got the same problem when trying to learn java. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
