powerbook:~ michaelguterl$ ri require
--------------------------------------------------------- Kernel#require
     require(string)    => true or false
------------------------------------------------------------------------
     Ruby tries to load the library named _string_, returning +true+ if
     successful. If the filename does not resolve to an absolute path,
     it will be searched for in the directories listed in +$:+. If the
     file has the extension ``.rb'', it is loaded as a source file; if
     the extension is ``.so'', ``.o'', or ``.dll'', or whatever the
     default shared library extension is on the current platform, Ruby
     loads the shared library as a Ruby extension. Otherwise, Ruby tries
     adding ``.rb'', ``.so'', and so on to the name. The name of the
     loaded feature is added to the array in +$"+. A feature will not be
     loaded if it's name already appears in +$"+. However, the file name
     is not converted to an absolute path, so that ``+require
     'a';require './a'+'' will load +a.rb+ twice.

        require "my-library.rb"
        require
"db-driver"
