I wrote this little shell-script to easen the task of installing Ruby
locally into $HOME/usr. It downloads the stable snapshot via FTP, unpacks,
compiles and installs Ruby, then installs a recent version of RubyGems. Run
it like this:
wget -O - http://ruby-installer.ntecs.de | sh
Or using fetch instead of wget:
fetch -o - http://ruby-installer.ntecs.de | sh
Be sure that you add $HOME/usr/bin to your PATH after installing it (put
this into .shrc):
