I installed new cocoa from gem:

> sudo gem install newcocoa  
> Successfully installed newcocoa-0.0.4  
> Installing ri documentation for newcocoa-0.0.4…  
> Installing RDoc documentation for newcocoa-0.0.4…

But I can’t run newcocoa as per tutorial  
anne-g-2:~/Desktop/cocoa anne$ newcocoa HelloWorld  
-bash: newcocoa: command not found

my path has everything imaginable on it  
-bash: /usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/mysql/bin:/private/  
opt/local/bin:/private/opt/local/lib:/private/opt/local/sbin:/bin:/  
sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/mysql/bin/:

what could be the problem? I installed the latest ruby and rubycocoa  
successfully as far as I know.

It seems it is just a path problem as I can invoke newcocoa directly  
but what is the problem?

anne-g-2:~/Desktop/cocoa anne$ newcocoa dud  
-bash: newcocoa: command not found

anne-g-2:~/Desktop/cocoa anne$ /opt/local/bin/newcocoa dud  
creating: dud  
creating: Rakefile  
creating: README  
creating: other templates  
NOW, Edit Rakefile

anne-g-2:~/Desktop/cocoa anne$ $PATH  
-bash: /usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/mysql/bin:/private/  
opt/local/bin:/private/opt/local/lib:/private/opt/local/sbin:/bin:/  
sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/mysql/bin/:

Did you install RubyCocoa before?

I thought /opt/local/bin was the same as /private/opt/local/bin  
but it isn’t.

I had to add it to the path and then newcocoa was found.  
I have 3 rubycocoas

/usr/lib/ruby182/site\_ruby/1.8/powerpc-darwin8.0/rubycocoa.bundle

/private/opt/local/lib/ruby/site\_ruby/1.8/powerpc-darwin8.3.0/  
rubycocoa.bundle

/usr/local/lib/ruby/site\_ruby/1.8/powerpc-darwin8.7.0/rubycocoa.bundle

$PATH  
/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/lib:/opt/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/  
local/sbin:/private/opt/local/bin:/private/opt/local/lib:/private/opt/  
local/sbin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/mysql/bin/:

I seem to have all possible paths on there, but newcocoa is still  
having trouble. How do I find what the trouble is?

newcocoa -c
