Yes, that was what I thought (after a bit more googling). Would it be OK to create a scripts directory under lib to put the ,rb scripts in. Also I have a module, so I guess I should put this in lib/modulename· Now a bit of context is probably needed. I will have quite a lot of scripts (possibly 40, each one is a web scraper). They do very gentle scraping (i.e. a http request every 15 seconds) so currently I run them concurrently using cron. Doing this all within rails seems a great idea but I am worried about the (resource) cost of doing this (initializing 40 rails environments) will be quite high. Did some googeling and could not find out what the cost is. Don't want to put undue stress on the server so although I like the ideal it may be better to keep them as separate stand alone scripts outside rails. Like I said I would rather run them inside rails.
