ANY library installed with RubyGems must require rubygems.

require ‘rubygems’
require ‘bluecloth’
BlueCloth.new(‘testing’).to_html

Unless, of course, you’re requiring it inside Rails, which already
requires rubygems and you should be indicating the gem dependency
inside environment.rb

HTH,

Using the binary gem from http://deveiate.org/code/bluecloth-2.0.5-x86-mingw32.gem
leads to the same problem as the one described inhttp://www.deveiate.org/projects/BlueCloth/ticket/59.
In the binary gem the file bluecloth_ext.so is missing. Does someone
have it?

The gem is broken, I’ve responded to this before over RubyInstaller
group:

http://groups.google.com/group/rubyinstaller/browse_thread/thread/59f3812381a195b5

That includes instruction and patch for the future.

Thx Luis!

To sum up:
Install the devkit available at http://rubyinstaller.org/
then gem install bluecloth --platform=ruby
