---------------------------------------------------------------
-LoadError: no such file to load -- asciidoctor
---------------------------------------------------------------
-
-then the user must install the _asciidoctor_ gem and set the environment
-variable `GEM_HOME`to the ruby gem folder. For example:
-
--------------------------------------------------------------
