I still do not know what to type so to get the program to require that file, so that any data or code in it, in the file tr.rb, and be able to use it in the program. recapping from above, I have tried typing at the irb prompt: require_relative "tr" require_relative "tr.rb" require_relative "./tr" and every variation I can think of. So the question I mean to ask is what do I type at the irb prompt to make that happen? tyvm in advance and thanks all for your patience. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
