yeah, you're correct, I was just posting a correction to myself. You get the
path relative to the pwd - which would let us do something like this:
require 'fileutils'
module Kernel
def boot relpath
caller_file = File.join FileUtils.pwd, caller[0].split(/:in/)[0]
caller_dir = File.dirname caller_file
target = File.expand_path File.join(caller_dir, relpath)
require target
end
def libs *relpaths
caller_file = File.join FileUtils.pwd, caller[0].split(/:in/)[0]
caller_dir = File.dirname caller_file
paths.flatten.each do |path|
$:.unshift File.expand_path(File.join(caller_dir, path))
end
end
end
If we could bung this in site_ruby or a gem, it might be something ...
