I tried installing using your suggestion

U:\>gem install actionmessenger-0.2.0 --source=http://trypticon.org/
software/actionmessenger/
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::RemoteSourceException)
    HTTP Response 404

I am getting a 404. so i downloaded the gem to my local directory and
get a different kind of error. how do i convert the local source as a
url.

U:\>gem install actionmessenger-0.2.0 --source =c:\temp\
ERROR: While executing gem ... (URI::InvalidURIError)
    bad URI(is not URI?): =c:\temp\/yaml

appreciate any help in fixing my gem command it from the http source
or my local source

Appreciate any help
