Switching to rbenv

Though I was turned off by rbenv’s creators' “we’re-so-much-better-than-RVM” attitude, I’ve grown frustrated with RVM and am going to give rbenv a try. RVM just didn’t work right with the various tools I’m using (ack-grep, RSpec2, autotest, FakeFS, etc.). I’m not sure where the problem is, but it’s likely because RVM overrides shell commands.

I’m still impressed by RVM and thank its creator for blazing a path to enable us to run multiple versions of Ruby. But I hope rbenv works better with my toolset.
