Hello ~

I have a Model Action that I wish to call from script/runner. This  
Model accesses another action in a module in the lib directory. If I  
fire up script/console and execute Model.action it works perfectly,  
but when I run the command via script/runner it cannot find the action  
I want to call in my module.

If I run: script/runner “puts $:” The lib directory is shown, so the  
module should be loaded. I have tried many different explicit  
approaches, but cannot get the action in the module to be called from  
the model invoked via script/runner.

Thx in advance for any ideas!
