Subject: command line rubygems and require

given the file requires_foo.rb

require 'foo'

class ReqFoo
end

if foo is a gem, then i can run it by going:

ruby -rubygems requires_foo.rb

why can't i have a file requires_foo2.rb

class ReqFoo
end

and go:

ruby -rubygems -r foo requires_foo2.rb

it's giving me a LoadError

but maybe i'm approaching the problem wrong. what i'm doing is that i 
have a large file which is a tutorial to my lib in rdoc, and which is 
doing an :include: of my examples when need be, in order for my example 
code to be writen in only one place. the problem is that i don't want a 
whole lot of requires and shebangs and whatnot in the examples. is there 
a standard proceedure for this kind of thing? ideas/suggestions for an 
rdoc noob? my solution is just to have a little shell script in the 
examples directory which goes something like:

ruby -rubygems -r foo example$1.rb

but then there's the problem listed above.

thanks,
_c
