Hello there! So you want to install Ruby-Processing and get started creating some fun programs.

You can simply type gem install ruby-processing from any installation of Ruby. Ruby-Processing requires JRuby to run, but it comes bundled with its own version of JRuby (granted, a very old version: 1.6.4). To run a sketch using an installed version of JRuby, just run your sketch with the --jruby flag. That way you can use installed gems in your sketches.

The version that lives on rubygems.org is the version of Ruby-Processing I used in my presentation. However, this version of Ruby-Processing is technically outdated: it uses Processing version 1.5.4, whereas the current version of Ruby-Processing is using Processing version 2.0.

There are a few reasons why I used an older version for my talk, and why I recommend people use the older version of Ruby-Processing:

It's easier to install: the current Ruby-Processing is too big for rubygems.org, so one needs to pull the repo down from github, install it on

	# This is a sample matplotlib configuration file - you can find a copy
	# of it on your system in
	# site-packages/matplotlib/mpl-data/matplotlibrc. If you edit it
	# there, please note that it will be overridden in your next install.
	# If you want to keep a permanent local copy that will not be
	# over-written, place it in HOME/.matplotlib/matplotlibrc (unix/linux
	# like systems) and C:\Documents and Settings\yourname\.matplotlib
	# (win32 systems).
