RubyGems is a package manager for the Ruby programming language that provides a standard format for distributing Ruby programs and libraries (in a self-contained format called a "gem"), a tool designed to easily manage the installation of gems, and a server for distributing them. RubyGems is now part of the standard library from Ruby version 1.9.

[edit] Usage tips

Once installed locally, to get a detailed list of gems available on the network, run the following command:
