Hi Laurent,
Much nicer. I'm still a bit confused with what you're doing with the first
USAGE paragraph , though:

My main problem is that I don't understand your implied context. Did you mean
something like this?

USAGE
When using an existing Ruby library or project with MacRuby, you typically
should precompile each source file using the -C option:
$ find ./lib -name "*.rb" -exec rubyc -C {} \;
This will create a loadable object bundle for each source file in the same
directory, but with the ".rbo" extension. These can be loaded by #require just
like Ruby source files, and in fact will always be preferred. For example:
require "foo"
will first look for and attempt to load the file foo.rbo. If that fails, only
then will it look for foo.rb.

Is that what you meant?
