Ruby and Rails comes on Leopard. Yahoo! That’s great. Oh wait, it’s a slightly out of date Ruby 1.8.6 and Rails 1.2.3. Hmm It’s owned by root too and you might fsck it up walking around as sudo all the time. So… Here you go. Make sure you have XCode 3.0 installed and then open a terminal and paste in the following:

cat >> $HOME/.profile << \EOF
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH
EOF
source $HOME/.profile
cd /tmp
