Ah, the perils of being a part time programmer. Never quite know what 
you're doing. I wondered about that 'readline' entry was doing there.

gems, packages, module, libraries, standard, non-standard, 
not-so-standard, definitely NOT standard (oops, that's one of mine). I 
feel lucky to muddle through, most days, and I DO do that. I actually 
get quite a lot of work done with Ruby, without ever quite knowing 
how.... ha!
