Hi Roger,

Looking at the following instructions:

1) install wget or curl in path
2) install unzip.exe 
(http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/unzip.htm) in path
3) install rake compiler [gem install rake-compiler]
put the bin folder in GCC in the devkit to my path [i.e. if you 
installed the straight devkit [1] then "set 
path=C:\ruby\devkit\gcc\3.4.5\bin;%PATH%"]
4) rake vendor:sqlite3
5) rake native gem
6) gem install pkg/xxx.gem

.. perhaps I'm too literal and I'm not following these instructions 
(keep in mind I write technical documentation so I take it literally 
when I read something or try to follow something)

1.  I downloaded and installed Wget (which was put in C:\Program 
Files\GnuWin32\Bin (added this directory to my path environment in 
windows)
2.  I downloaded and installed unzip.exe into a new folder called 
C:\Ruby\unzip\ and added this folder to my path environment in windows.
3.  Performed gem install rake-compiler => successful.
4.  I have the devkit installed in C:\Ruby\devkit so I checked and 
confirmed and added the path C:\Ruby\devkit\gcc\3.4.5\bin to my path 
environment in windows.
5.  Opened up a Command Prompt and typed rake vendor:sqlite3 from 
"anywhere" in the command prompt.

Rake aborted!
No Rakefile found (looking for: rakefile, Rakefile, rakefile.rb, Rake...

Again, I'm sorry if I perform operations literally but if my step #5 
differs from Step #4 it's because there's nothing in there explaining 
where to begin rake...

Any assistance would be appreciated.
