Subject: [ruby-talk:10686] Re: Q: Search path for require ($:)

in my case, the cgi scripts are nested, so probably i will have to check 
first before i push the path?  

if not $:.include?("path/to/lib") then $:.push "path/to/lib" end

... getting a bit clumsy :(

you could put

	$:.push "path/to/lib"
	require "lib"

at the top of your script. Instead of hardwiring the path string, you
could also read it from some other well-known location, e.g. a file or
a directory service.
