/usr/local/bin/ruby -rrubygems -e "require 'redgreen'"  /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rspec-1.3.0/bin/spec --autospec <files_here> -O spec/spec.opts

invalid option: --autospec
Test::Unit automatic runner.
Usage: -e [options] [-- untouched arguments]

which spec says "/usr/local/bin/spec"
which autospec says "/usr/local/bin/autospec"

/usr/local/bin/spec --help includes --autospec option in the list.

What am I missing here?

I finally got some time during the weekend to look into this myself.

The problem is "require 'redgreen/autotest'" statement in .autotest file I keep my autotest configuration in ~/.autotest

Comment that row and "autospec", "autotest", and "cucumber" works ok.

and it's still colorized output!

the unit test part is not colored, cucumber is.

You can just require redgreen conditionally

require 'redgreen/autotest' unless ENV['RSPEC']

You can have coloured output in rspec by passing --color in your spec.opts file
