PATH is the environment variable that let the system search for executables. "gem" is the RubyGems executable you use to install, uninstall and update gems in your Ruby installation: http://docs.rubygems.org/ From the command prompt and inside your Ruby\bin directory, execute the above mentioned commands and check the output. If you're not familiar with the command prompt. I suggest you read more documentation how to use it. Similar knowledge acquired here will help you on other platforms. Regards, -- Luis Lavena
