shoes won't let me include ruby twitter gem

[arjunc12]

i've been using this gem http://twitter.rubyforge.org/ in all of the ruby code i've been writing and there haven't been any issues. however, when i try to write ruby code used for a shoes app and i require the twitter gem it doesn't work. i've tried doing shoes.setup i.e.

Shoes.setup do gem 'twitter' end

but it always gets an error when it tries to install it.

Are you using Shoes3 (0.r1514)? If so, I guess that there is a gem which requires rubygems over 1.3.5. What platform are you using? If you use Windows, try out shoes-0.r1783.

Yep try building shoes from source, then it works. Otherwise you can try green shoes :-)
