Subject: Suggestions for common/global data in app (cli)

I am writing a (my first) client side ruby app. Many programs use the
same data such as db login, logger etc. Is there a standard ruby way of
doing this? Some suggestions would be useful.

- I have used YAML for config data for single scripts earlier
- I am aware of 'load'ing a ruby file which could have config data in
it.
- A module with global constants

Would these files (yaml, load) have to loaded in each program?

Have I missed any approach? I have heard of global vars but never used.

I would appreciate a link to any ruby application best practices, too.
Thanks.
