+<em>This section is optional.</em>

+Normally the path to enlightenment looks like this:
+
+    cd ruby_koans
+    rake
+    # edit
+    rake
+    # edit
+    rake
+    # etc

+make a change in your editor, the koans will immediately run again. This will
+hopefully keep your focus on learning Ruby instead of the command line.

+Install the Ruby gem (library) called +watchr+ and then ask it to
