Interesting... I'll have to try that.

I recall i had another Gem constant missing error soon after i upgraded to hardy. I didn't have time to trace the problem down, so i removed the rubygems pakages through synaptic, downloaded the current version from rubygems.org <http://rubygems.org>, and re-installed with setup.rb. It's been humming along ever since!

    No prob: you just need to "cd" into /opt/shoes and the file
    "shoes-bin" or just plain "shoes" will be in either
    /opt/shoes/dist or /opt/shoes/bin. Then you can run ./shoes(-bin)
    /path/to/file. There is one problem I have found though with Shoes
    running on Heron, I don't know whether it has exactly to do just
    with Heron, but it appears that the constant Gem::Ext is missing.
    _why, please help!

        Thank you very much!--embarrassing to be such a newb here but
        I am.  Not a programmer (yet) but an academic in a useless
        field.  So once I had -all- the correct dependencies, this
        worked like a charm.  The sample files work beautifully from
        dist. But then--

        I was able to run the install script from the home page (i.e.:
        $ sudo make PREFIX=/opt/shoes VIDEO=1 install) and
        lo-and-behold it installed there.  However, now (I'm so
        embarrassed) I can't get things to run from the command line.
         I downloaded some files from the shoebox and don't know how
        to get them to run.

        For example, should I be able to run $ shoes othello.rb from
        the command line?  Or do I need to set the PATH variable somehow?

        Sorry to be so ignorant, but there's no way out but through, I
        suppose.  And I'm trying to get camping to work but that's
        another embarrassing letter for another list-serv, I'm sure.

        Best,

        John
