Hi! Now that you've unpacked the gem, using it is no longer a gem-specific task. You just need to add each gem's lib directory (or equivalent) to Ruby's load path. What I would do is to loop through the directory in which you unpacked each gem, and unshift that directory's lib subdirectory onto the $: object (somewhere before you try to use the library).
