Ruby One-Click Installer For Mac

Ruby One-Click Installer is the most simple way to equip your Macintosh Apple OS X System with Ruby - similar to the Windows Ruby One-Click Installer.

It replaces the broken Readline library, updates to a current version of SQLite3 and prepares your OS X for Rails, which needs at least Ruby 1.8.4 to run. The current Ruby Version is 1.8.6 (1.8.5 is recommended for Rails) and Rubygems 0.9.4.

This package's intention is to remain small while being a Universal Binary that serves everything to deploy Ruby Applications on OSX Machines - Cheetah, Puma, Jaguar, Panther, Tiger or Leopard. You don't need to compile anything and you don't need Apple's Developer Tools (Xcode) installed.

The Ruby One-Click Installer for OSX will add the installed files to /usr/local, and will not replace Apple's original Ruby. That means you can easily uninstall it or switch to Apple's Ruby again.
