Hello, I'm a first-time poster and new to ruby, but an experienced C programmer.

A friend of mine is developing a game engine in C, and I was thinking of adding ruby scripting capabilities to this engine.  However, I'm not sure what is the best way to go about doing this, so I have a few questions.

1. Should I use standard ruby or mruby?
2. If I use mruby, is there any way to include libraries?  I have heard that requiring files is not supported in mruby.
3. What would be the best way to manage development dependencies on whichever ruby implementation I pick?

Thanks
