Hello.

I noticed that I had an alias 186 => ruby-1.8.6-p398

C:\dev\ruby\downloads\rubygems-1.6.2>pik rm ruby-1.8.6-p398
Are you sure you'd like to remove 'ruby-1.8.6-p398'? |yes|
y
ruby-1.8.6-p398 removed.

C:\dev\ruby\downloads\rubygems-1.6.2>pik 186

(the alias wasn't removed with its target?)

unfortunately the help text doesnt' seem to help here.

C:\dev\ruby\downloads\rubygems-1.6.2>pik help alias

Usage: pik alias [options]

manages aliases for ruby versions

-V, --version Pik version
-d, --debug Outputs debug information


C:\dev\ruby\downloads\rubygems-1.6.2>pik alias remove 186
ERROR: Unknown alias action remove

Thanks!

Or maybe it is the rm that was failing?

Bugs in remove and install were fixed here:
https://github.com/vertiginous/pik/commit/97853e84c8701b684fe750bbcd6b2ddcbb773a38

I improved alias help messages here:
https://github.com/vertiginous/pik/commit/178e0667f1a93403b7b57fa7b080cc3a438b0e4c

The next release is long overdue. I'll try to get some free time
tomorrow. Today is my middle child's birthday.
