Hi Colman.

Actually that didn't work, but you set me off on the right course to
the solution!

I started looking at the options for "install". Then I googled
"rubygems install" and came across the rubygems user guide section 2.3.

I was able to search for remote gems containing "sparklines". I found
both the gems I needed. When I tried the remote install I was prompted
with:

Install required dependency hoe? [Yn] y
Install required dependency rubyforge? [Yn] y

I answered yes, and everything installed beautifully.

Thanks for your help!

-Phil
