Installing Ncurses for Ruby on Windows

How do I use (n)curses in Ruby?

You might be able to get some implementation ideas from the Ruby/ProgressBar library, which generates text progress bars. I stumbled across it a couple of months back but haven't made any use of it.

How can I easily set the curses window background color in Ruby?

Guess I'll use the hacky padding workaround. Seems to be all I've found so far

sudo apt-get install ruby-dev in Windows

In order to install the compiler toolchain to compile certain gems on Windows, you can install the DevKit as an Addon to Ruby Installer.

If you installed a Rails Installer package from http://railsinstaller.org/, this should already be included into the package.
