One option is the bin folder that Jimmy suggested which is put into your  
path by the dev.bat script.

I also want to say there is a GEMBIN environment variable or config  
option (for .gemrc or the gem command line), but I don’t remember for  
certain.

Looks like the GEM\_BIN environment variable is one way folks swap  
between  
1.8.6 and 1.9.1 of MRI on the same machine:

[http://www.jurisgalang.com/articles/show/Dual%20Ruby%20Installation](http://www.jurisgalang.com/articles/show/Dual%20Ruby%20Installation)I’ll  
investigate setting this, along with GEM\_HOME and GEM\_PATH in dev.bat to  
the  
directory tree Jimmy suggested, and report back. Thanks for the pointer!

## Ah ha! The key is to pass a --bindir argument to igem. I’ve updated my post to reflect this change. Thanks, Jimmy and Jim!
