HI!

I was in the mood for packing my first gem for educational purpose and I  
created RSay ([Google Code Archive - Long-term storage for Google Code Project Hosting.](http://code.google.com/p/rsay/)) a better\* implementation  
of rtranslate, but my executable does not work… I can’t use (like it’s  
written in my description) $rsay -f en -t it ‘Hello my Friend!’

I’ve noticed that rtranslate puts the executable in  
/usr/local/bin/rtranslate but I don’t get how this is done by the  
gemspec!

(\*better - it parses JSON response and does not trigger google spam  
block)
