Require without .rb

How can I make my programs not need to be called *.rb in the require
statment? If I have a script called notepad/component.rb, how do make it
so that notepad.rb can say require “notepad/component” instead of
“notepad/component.rb”?

Thank you

Hi
You do not need to put the .rb in require.
Try a simple command:
require “dbi” and see the result.
