Gem errors

I've seen this error for a couple of gems when I try to install. Am I doing
something wrong? Thanks!

[C:\Documents and Settings\desmond]gem install genx4r
Attempting local installation of 'genx4r'
Local gem file not found: genx4r*.gem
Attempting remote installation of 'genx4r'
Building native extensions. This could take a while...
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Errno::ENOENT)
    No such file or directory - nmake

genx4r requires compiling a component because it's an extension. If
you have the VisualStudio.NET 2003 or Visual C++ 7 free compiler
installed, you need to start a command-line from the appropriate icon
to set up the compiler's environment variables first. Then you can
probably get it to work. Maybe :slight_smile:
