I'm running win 7 and just installed pik via the installer. I listed the ruby versions and the most recent version is 1.9.2[-1.3.6]. I saw a post where someone mentioned to use "pik list -r" but pik tells me it's deprecated and then uses "list known" anyway. I want to install ruby 1.9.3 and do not currently have any ruby installed on this machine.

Sorry in advance if this is a duplicate question, but I didn't see it.

Thanks Patrick

    did you add the ruby 1.9.2 dir to the pik list by doing pik add ? – Raghu Nov 07 '12 at 21:32
  • I actually don't have any ruby on this machine, I was shooting to have the manager take care of it all from the beginning. That might be a good workaround though, thank. – Patrick Nov 07 '12 at 22:23
  • you have to tell pik manually to which directory your different rubies are installed. Its not so smart as RVM !! – Raghu Nov 08 '12 at 01:15
  • oh really? I like RVM, I use it all the time on my personal machines. I was hoping that it would install it for me and manage the different versions. Thank you for the advice. – Patrick Nov 08 '12 at 04:55

As Raghu said, you need to specify existing ruby installations by 

pik add <path to ruby executable>

However, for getting the latest ruby revision, you can perform the installation like rvm,

just do a pik install like:

pik install ruby

or

pik install jruby
