I'm really enjoying ruby; the gem framework is absolutely amazing.
When I was trying to use multiple versions of Ruby on the same
system, I ran across this one confusing aspect: the executables for
gems didn't have the same naming convention as the "ruby" and "irb"
executables.
So I filed bug 1728[1] and Eric Hodel was kind enough to point me to
this mailing list.
It seems that "gem --format-executable" should default to "true"
because the binaries created have the name of the "ruby" executable
embedded in them (in the #! at the top).
I would like to make --format-executable the default for 1.4+. It
seems many more people are running multiple versions of ruby these days.
