Hi,

I am using a mingw version of ruby (1.8.1)  and I had to add 

$stdout.sync=true

at the top of install.rb  in order to  see 
the questions about the default directory.

Apart from that the installation process freezes just after

Also it would be nice to have
a command line selection of the proxy like rubygems do ( --proxy=... )

So far it looks very nice.
Thanks!
