You need to tell us your OS and version, your ruby version etc. Give us a dump of the error message you get. Also, look up google "ncurses ruby install error" or the error you are getting. You might get some help there too. You can try downloading from the berlios.de site and doing the ruby extconf.rb ... make ... make install" dance. Let us know exactly. oh yes, you will first need ncurses on your system before the ncurses gem can work. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
