Ruby Hpricot Rake

I m new to ruby. What prompted me is the need for hpricot used for
webscraping.

But i dont know how to install?

All articles say it is $ gem install hpricot. But none say where to
type it, or what are the pre requisites.

I m using Windows 7 enterprise (32 bit OS)
Processor: Intel core 2 quad

Right now after googling and referring many sites i have downloaded
following packages

rubyinstaller-1.9.2-p290.exe
jimweirich-rake-v0.9.2.2-0-gaf09587.rar
hpricot-hpricot-0.8.4-0-ge432b0e.rar
DevKit-tdm-32-4.5.2-20110712-1620-sfx.exe

Please help me how to go about the installations.and any other helpful
links.

Install Ruby. Make sure it is added to your PATH (the installer will ask
you).

When done, open a terminal (Hit the Start Orb, and type “cmd”, hit
enter). That’s where you input gem commands.

Gem will go and fetch the hpricot gem, and resolve any dependencies that
exist.

A method of solution is perfect if we can forsee from the start,
and even prove, that following that method we shall attain our aim.
