This is the error from bash. With tcsh (default shell) I got less far.

tcsh: Illegal variable name.

You're not using the Bash shell. tcsh isn't fully compatible, but thankfully Mac OS does include Bash, so just type it in, then you're good to go

That install script is written in Ruby - it looks like bash is trying to run the Ruby script. Can you try running it through /usr/bin/ruby?

Tigerbrew is untested on 10.3, so I can't guarantee it'll work if you get it installed! I'm happy to try to support it if you get to that point.
