I am trying to install Hpricot but receive a build tools error from
gem install. However I can install nokogiri gem can actually even
figure I can’t type and fixed up my nokogirl entry.
What do I need to do with hpricot.
This is my install
C:\rubygems-1.3.7>gem install hpricot
Building native extensions. This could take a while…
