When you run a command like "gem", your terminal figures out what that means by looking through a set of folders until it finds a program with the same name. Then it lets that program handle whatever you typed in on the command line. The way it determines which folders to look through is by examining a variable called your path (in *nix, you can type 'echo $PATH' to see it). I don't know enough about Windows to know how to fix this, but this tutorial looks very good, and should have everything you need, to get the gem command working http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/articles/command_line.shtml#pathIt shows how to fix Python, if it has this issue, but I'd expect it to be exactly the same for rubygems. --0016e64f9170e97b6f0499ec0469--
