What is the Windows equivalent file for .bashrc?

Question

I am trying to install eventmachine as follows:

gem install eventmachine -v '0.12.10'

Please help me how to resolve this issues in windows

Answer 1

You don't need .bashrc, add environment variable instead. To set an environment variable(which is equivalent to the solution described in the post) do that right click on My computer, select properties -> advanced and then environment variables. Create a new value with name the name you need and value equivalent to the one you give it in linux(please note that $USER will not work. Either type your username or use %USERNAME%). I am not sure this will fix your problem I am just telling you how to perform action equivalent to the one described in the answer you link to. Also the way to set environment variable may differ a little depending on your windows version.
