Please, look at the first item in your path.... jRuby! :-P


when calling gem, you're actually calling jruby gem.

That's why you don't get "Using NT command line" echo when calling it
outside c:\ruby\bin

Please, remove jruby from the path and try again.

That one of the problems of having multiple interpreters with the same
executables hanging in the path.

Hey, lucky you didn't add ruby 1.9 too! :-P

HTH,

Luis

PS: btw, there are many attempts to add jruby and ruby\bin too, so
please cleanup your path variables -- removing duplicates -- to avoid
future problems again.
