I’ve got an interactive program that I’d like to unit test and I’ve been  
referred to Mocha.

I tried to install it thru gem, but it couldn’t find it.

I’m on linux, how do I install it manually? (sorry, its kinda of a linux  
question)

thanks

sudo gem install mocha

?

You’re going to have to give us a few more details. Can you tell us what  
commands you’ve tried and what results or errors you’ve seen.
