While this thread started about renaming gem to jgem for jruby it quickly
became a more general thread on whether it makes sense to rename gem at all and
whether local gem repositories can be or even should be shared.
I assumed Jim was referring more generally to the renaming of the installed gem
based on the name of the installed ruby
For example here's some of the possible new names for 'gem':
%w{ruby jruby rubinius rbx ruby1.9 ironruby}.collect {|ruby_name|
Gem::ConfigMap[:RUBY_INSTALL_NAME]=ruby_name; Gem.default_exec_format % "gem"}
=> ["gem", "jgem", "rubinius", "rbx", "gem1.9", "irongem"]
see: defaults.rb:
# Deduce Ruby's --program-prefix and --program-suffix from its install name.
def self.default_exec_format
baseruby = ConfigMap[:BASERUBY] || 'ruby'
ConfigMap[:RUBY_INSTALL_NAME].sub(baseruby, '%s') rescue '%s'
end
