There isn’t a gem yet for win32-process. Your best option is to either  
use the win32utils-installer, which contains a installs a series of  
precompiled binaries, or to download the process-0.3.2.so file on the  
RubyForge ‘files’ page (and rename it to process.so), and install it by  
hand.

OK, thanks… what’s the proper way to require or include it in a  
program?
