Subject: [ruby-core:74494] [Ruby trunk Feature#12208] Improve ri command
Date: Wed, 23 Mar 2016 06:31:36 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <redmine.journal-57616.20160323063136.0619ae1d9007f7d3@ruby-lang.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: redmine.issue-12208.20160323052246@ruby-lang.org

Issue #12208 has been updated by Kashyap K.

File Sample ri.png added

We could add the `ri` commands for each method on the Ruby [doc HTML pages](http://ruby-doc.org/core-2.3.0/) at  just under the method signature line (like shown in the image attached) or some place else. That way anyone who visits the Ruby doc website will come to know the `ri` tool in general. And they might end up using it next time onwards. One more side-effect of this is that the difference between the 'dot' and 'pound' style usage (`String#to_s` and `Kernel.eval`) may become clear for people new to the language.
