It's nice that it works offline but there _are_ some inconveniences; two of them that come to my mind right now: * For common method names the output is rather confusing, implementations from core and stdlib and installed gems are listed without any logic order (at least to me). * ri doesn't give the full namespace hierarchy of a given method, so it's not always easy to get more information on the class that defines a specific method. Example: `ri fetch` points to the `Row` class ("Implementation from Row"), but `ri Row` doesn't give any result (only `ri CSV::Row` does). Regarding the suggestion of showing the ri command for every method in the HTML docs: for me that would produce too much noise. ---------------------------------------- Feature #12208: Improve ri command https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/12208#change-57718 * Author: Yui NARUSE * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * Assignee: ---------------------------------------- Ruby has well documented in rdoc. It also has a frontend CLI. But people seems not using `ri`... At first, write your request here to improve ri command! ---Files-------------------------------- Sample ri.png (44.7 KB) -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe:
