Is your gem bin directory in your $PATH?

You didn't specify your platform. If it's Ubuntu or Debian, then you
need:

PATH=$PATH:/var/lib/gems/1.8/bin
export PATH
cheat cheat

or just:

/var/lib/gems/1.8/bin/cheat cheat

(Debian always like to do things differently to everyone else, to make
people's lives more interesting)

Yep! I'm on Xubuntu and your above hint did the trick! Thanks!
