even when installed with gem , I encounter a problem ( if it's really a problem ) : if I step through my code ( ruby -rdebug code.rb ) , the debugger dies at the line 'require "mechanize"' ; I mention that I have included 'require "rubygems"' as the first line . However , if I set a breakpoint in my code , somewhere past that line , I can reach it . Could someone give me an explanation please ? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
