Thanks. That is the correct reference for my RUBYOPT addition to
~/.bashrc. The manual shows the line exactly as I have it: 'export
RUBYOPT=rubygems' without the '-'. Is that a typo in the manual? In any
event, making the change you suggested had no effect on the response
to"require 'fcgi.so'" in irb. (I did restart irb to allow the
environment change to be seen. I am running irb as the correct user,
not as root, Running irb as root has the same effect, however.)
