+
+== DESCRIPTION:
+
+Need makes ruby relative requires just work. Simply need a file with a relative path
+and the file will always be required correctly, regardless of what file your application is
+being launched through. Typically, ruby projects would unshift lib onto $PATH or use the
+File.dirname(__FILE__) trick. Using need means you don't have to worry about either of these.
+
+Assume you have two files, one directly in lib and the other in lib/extensions. Let's assume that file_a in lib requires file_b, in lib/extensions. Previously, you would doing some crazy load path unshifting or use the __FILE__ trick to make these requires flexible enough to work when your app is being accessed by rake, through a test suite, or required as a gem. Now, just use need.
+
+  In file_a:
+  need{"extensions/file_b"}
+
+Note that the block syntax is necessary. Need uses the binding of the block to determine the
+location of your file and correct perform your relative require for you.
