Install rouge code highlighter on windows for jekyll

Question

I have ruby for windows installed and working on my Windows 8 64-bit laptop. I also have jekyll installed and working and am able to build and serve a static website built using jekyll.

My problem is with syntax highlighting for code snippets in markdown posts in my jekyll setup.

The default highlighter, which is pygments, requires a python install and I don't want that on my windows machine.

So I found that rogue is a native syntax highlighter in ruby, and tried to install it by issuing the following command, as told in this jekyll on windows guide page http://jekyll-windows.juthilo.com/3-syntax-highlighting/

gem install rouge

However, when I do that, I am getting the following error.

ERROR:  Could not find a valid gem 'rogue' (>= 0) in any repository
ERROR:  Possible alternatives: logue, rogu, vogue

Not sure what I am doing wrong. Any help is appreciated. Note that the command windows is in admin mode, and also as stated earlier, ruby and jekyll are running fine on my laptop.

Finally, I am not behind any firewall or anything like that.

Answer 1

尝试gem install rouge而非gem install rogue。
