I'm going thru the book 'Learning Ruby' and am trying to use TK...
In IRB, I entered the command: require 'tk' but it returns: no such
file...
If I go to the shell and enter the command: tclsh it works.
So, I'm guessing I have TK but Ruby can't find it...
I'm a 'newbie' to the Mac and I've just gone thru the agony of updating
my Rails, I had to buy a Snow Leopard upgrade [$24.99] to do this...
I'm heading to the new version of the Pickaxe book and have done Rails a
while back on a PC...
So, I'm looking to use Rails but would like to put up a few apps with
TK...and I have to use the Mac...
I'd appreciate any help...
Thank you

Apple doesn't ship ruby with tk on 10.6 (but did with 10.5). You can verify that with `gem which tk`. If you build your own you'll have it, but I can't verify that it works:
713 % rvm 1.9.2
714 % gem which tk
