gem dependency required).

== REQUIREMENTS

Mr Bones does not have any “requirements”, but if you do not have the
following gems installed you will not get all that Mr Bones has to
offer.

  • rubyforge - for easy gem publishing to rubyforge.org
  • rcov - for code coverage testing
  • rspec - if that’s the way you roll
  • facets - for pretty colors

Actually, you will need at least version 1.2.0 of rubygems installed to
use
Mr Bones.

== FUN FACT

A typical adult human skeleton commonly consists of 206, 208 or more
bones
depending on the method used in counting.
