your_rails_app/script/runner
======

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

path_to_rails = File.dirname(File.expand_path(__FILE__))
exec("#{path_to_rails}/rails runner #{ARGV[0]}")

You can just drop it in your_rails_app/script/runner — chmod +x the file and use it in place of rails runner. The main advantage of using this is that you can use it in your script files using a shebang:

======

#!/usr/bin/env /home/rohit/code/runmeapp/script/runner

Product.find(:all).each { |p| p.price *= 2 ; p.save! }
