I NEED help plz:  
My group are working on rails IDE and we’re in the wizard part now and  
we’re trying to generate the Rails skeleton and we looked in the  
rubygems and found in rubyinstaller “Ruby 1.8.5”  
ruby/lib//ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.2.2/lib/rails\_generator/  
generators/applications/app/app\_generator.rb

what does it do, does it generates rails skeleton? are there any other  
scripts we need to execute as well?  
plz email me at removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid

I am not sure if I understand you, but using “rails \<app\_name\>” in the  
console will create a folder called \<app\_name\> and the basic skeleton.  
Google for Rails tutorials.  
Did I get your problem?
