And WOW from
2010! Very buried under tons of Russian spam.</p>
<p><code>gem install</code> can't run any code on the users' system
after install. You have to specifically invoke code within it from
<em>another</em> ruby process. In general, yes, typos are a
problem, but we haven't seen anything yet. Thanks for bringing this
up though.</p></div>Nick Quaranto
