Ruby 1.9 support #142
Description
Activity
Hello,
Can you be more specific? How are you installing Pik? Are you using the standalone binary or attempt to use the gem version?
What is the thing that is not working? Do you have an error/backtrace?
Have you tried pre-release 0.3.0 available here? https://github.com/vertiginous/pik/downloads
The README says that Pik requires Ruby 1.8 in order to install Pik. Is this true?
You can install pik as gem on Ruby 1.9.x since it includes an standalone executable binary.
You can also install Pik as standalone binary and will be independent of the gem and the Ruby version you installed it.
You can use Pik to switch to different versions of Ruby, either 1.8.x, 1.9.x or 2.0, even JRuby.
However, to work on Pik, you need Ruby 1.8.7 since exerb-mingw was limited to only 1.8.x Ruby. That was solved not long ago, so README might not be accurate anymore.

Ohhhh. Can we tweak the README like this?
...Ruby 1.8.7 is not required for Pik users, but is required for developing Pik itself.
Please add support for using Pik in environments where the primary Ruby available is not 1.8 but 1.9.
