Problems with 'gem require' and test-unit gem

I installed test-unit 2.0.0 as a gem, so now I'm a situation where I
want to explicitly require the gem version of test unit rather than
the one that shipped with the standard library. However, when I try
to do "gem require 'test/unit'" I get this:

Where lines 9 and 10 of tc_mc.rb looks like this:

require 'rubygems'
gem require 'test/unit'

What's the proper way to do this?

Thanks,

Dan

Ah, ok.

Many thanks Eric.
