DevKit ruby dk.rb init does not work
I was trying to install Ruby 2.0.0 (x64) on Windows by following the procedure as in this link: https://forwardhq.com/support/installing-ruby-windows which I was directed to. After looking into other sources, I thought this was the easiest one to follow.
I downloaded Ruby Installer and then installed it. But, afterwards, there was no icon on the Desktop or in the Start menu directing to a Ruby IDE whatsoever.. strange.
So, I installed Ruby 1.9.4, after uninstalling Ruby 2.0.0. Same thing.
I then dowloaded the corresponding DevKit zip-file, as mentioned, all this before extracting it to C:\DevKit.
Then, as the guide says, I tried the following commands, in PowerShell:
chdir C:\DevKit
ruby dk.rb init
What I got was this:
C:/Ruby193/lib/ruby/1.9.1/win32/registry.rb:172:in `find': unknown encoding name - CP720 (ArgumentError)
from C:/Ruby193/lib/ruby/1.9.1/win32/registry.rb:172:in `initialize'

from dk.rb:138:in `installed_rubies'
from dk.rb:146:in `init'
from dk.rb:313:in `run'
from dk.rb:332:in `<main>'
As you can see, dear 'answer-er', there is some kind of error, in the first line of this block.
Afterwards, I said to myself "try the next instruction in the guide, maybe it will work":
PS C:\DevKit> ruby dk.rb install
So, I got this:
Error loading 'config.yml'. Have you run 'ruby dk.rb init' yet?
I am new to Ruby, and I tried searching for an answer... I got nothing.
Help? Thanks!
