Mercurial in Netbeans Fix

In order to avoid an ugly bug in Netbeans 6.5, one which removed all rake functionality from the Netbeans IDE, I installed the latest build of Netbeans for Ruby (and RoR). Unfortunately, this install messed with my Mercurial settings and it took me around half an hour to track down the issue.

Tools->Options->Misc tab->Versioning tab->Mercurial
The Mercurial executable path wasn't imported correctly, Netbeans was unable to find hg.exe.

Its nice to have rake tasks...

Back

From the dead.... Homework and school intervened, killing all fun stuff for a time.

Messed around with sqlite3 tonight, I believe I have it up and running.
Resources include this video, a stackoverflow question, and NetBean's info for installing gems using native extensions. Turns out I was unable to install the latest version of the sqlite gem on Windoze thanks to a lack of compiler (gcc) methinks... Rather than mess with that I installed an older (1.1.0) version of sqlite3-ruby.

Now I need to figure out foreign keys within sqlite3. Le Sigh. I need to find a gem to do this dirty work for me...

Lovin the mercurial though. I just need to make sure I use it consistently.
