Your filenames should not use uppercase letters. You should not move
things into the rubygems directory manually. You should access them
from within your library or from an installed gem. Look at any Ruby
library to see correct directory structure, file names and use of
require.
On your system, /usr/local/lib/site_ruby is probably the appropriate
place to put ad-hoc libraries. Otherwise, your program can choose the
location:
$LOAD_PATH.unshift “/path/to/my/lib”
rubygems itself does add things to $LOAD_PATH, but they typically are of
the form /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/-/lib. If you want
your library to go here, then package it up as a gem, and install the
gem. (For Ubuntu, with rubygems installed using apt-get, it’ll be
/var/lib/gems/1.8/…)
1.hello.rb
position: /home/pt/test/hello.rb
content:
class Hihi
def self.hello
puts “HELLO”
end
end
2.hello.gemspec
position: /home/pt/test/hello.gemspec
content:
Gem::Specification.new do |s|
s.name = ‘hello’
s.version = ‘0.1.0’
s.summary = ‘hello gems’
s.files = ["/home/pt/test/hello.rb"]
s.summary=‘output hello’
s.description=‘output hello’
end

problem:
Would you be kind enough to solve this problem for me ?
1.why in my system
/var/lib/gems/1.8 and /var/lib/gems/1.8/bin aren’t both writable.
how to make them writable?
2.how can i use require command this way: require ‘hello’ not
require ‘/home/pt/test/hello’?

You have to be root to write there:
sudo gem install hello
2.how can i use require command this way: require ‘hello’ not
require ‘/home/pt/test/hello’?
You have to require rubygems first for your ruby to know where to look
for gems:
