I’m running Windows 11, and have Ruby 3.2.8 installed. I installed Scottkit via ‘gem install scottkit’.
Scottkit is a ruby-made tool for compiling and playing interactive fiction games of the Scott Adams format.
Here’s the install:
C:\repos\MyTwine\ScottKit>gem install scottkit
Using rubygems directory: C:/Users/kyrat/.gem/ruby/3.2.0
Successfully installed nokogiri-1.18.8-x64-mingw-ucrt
Successfully installed scottkit-1.6.0
Parsing documentation for nokogiri-1.18.8-x64-mingw-ucrt
Parsing documentation for scottkit-1.6.0
Done installing documentation for nokogiri, scottkit after 1 seconds
2 gems installed
And here is the error message when I try to run scottkit:
C:/Ruby32-x64/lib/ruby/3.2.0/rubygems.rb:264:in `find_spec_for_exe': can't find gem scottkit (>= 0.a) with executable scottkit (Gem::GemNotFoundException)
from C:/Ruby32-x64/lib/ruby/3.2.0/rubygems.rb:283:in `activate_bin_path'
from C:/repos/MyTwine/ScottKit/scottkit:36:in `<main>'
I find that scottkit gem (and apparently the nokogirl gem it needs) are installed here on Windows 11:
"C:\Users\kyrat.local\share\gem\ruby\3.2.0\gems"
I know next to nothing about Ruby, but it seems like Ruby expects to find scottkit somewhere other than in a user subdirectory.
