Yes, thanks. I had missed that.

I can see some problems with how 'require' works (e.g. how do I refer to a
relative path from current working directory?), and recall seeing some
postings to fix it. A quick search did not uncover it. Any pointers?

I'd also vote for your Observer to go into the standard Ruby libs, but I
don't know how that works.
