  RVM is not a function, selecting rubies with 'rvm use ...' will not work.
```
answer :- console is not running as a login shell so no access to rvm function.

- Edit -> Profile Preferences
- select tab: Title and Command
- check box Run command as a login shell
- restart terminal
select rvm’s default version :
