Hello, I've been developing an application that uses Shoes and now I need to plugin the serialport gem but seem to be running in to some difficulty. I've tried getting shoes to compile it, shoes 3.0 waits forever on the compiling native code and never completes, shoes 2.0 compiles it ok but fails to load the gem after that complaining about the compiled library. I've also tried taking the compiled gems from my ruby system and copying them in with no luck. I've noticed that shoes comes with a couple compiled gems out of the box, what is the easiest way to build my own ver of shoes with an additional gem? Cheers Hez

what is the easiest way to build my own ver of shoes with an additional gem?
Basically, you'd unpack the gem source into the same directory as those
gems, and then it _should_ (I think) Just Work.
You should give it a try and report back, that'd make a good guide...
I think you might have to tweak the rakefile to include the new gem.
