Curl Not a Reconized Command Ruby RVM

Question

I'm trying to install RVM and I'm following the instructions from the RVM webpage. It says to use this command in the cmd:

     curl -L https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable --ruby

But it says that 'curl' is not a reconized command:

     'curl' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
     operable program or batch file.

Any thoughts on this?

That error message is from Windows. Unfortunately RVM doesn't work with Windows. — nbrew, Mar 18 '13 at 19:37

Windows doesn't come with the 'curl' command built-in. You can download it from here. But that isn't going to help you much, because RVM doesn't support Windows :)

You can use pik instead.

Exactly what I was just about to add. According to http://stackoverflow.com/a/12910824/2141283 pik will do the trick. – nbrew Mar 18 '13 at 19:39
