It shouldn=E2=80=99t be too hard to add `ri` support inside irb=E2=80=94pry=
 already
supports this. I=E2=80=99d actually like to see `ri` come with support for =
asking
about Ruby language constructs, not just the standard library and installed
gems.

I think it would be great to somehow integrate the &#39;do_you_mean&#39; fu=

<br>
Also, a bit more interactivity may help. As an example, if I write &quot;ri=
