A closer look at application_helper.rb show it contains a Module
definition. As this is particular to Rails, I think it is acceptable to
add my code here. Then in application_controller.rb I added the
Include ApplicationHelper statement. Testing show I am able to
access the defined methods, as required.
I also find $: to list the module search paths, but $! seem to return
nil.
Cheers!,

: well, i think documentation for "require" explains where it searches for
: files.
:
: as far as i remember the path list is in $! variable. just add to it
: whatever you need to include more paths.
