From: David Lutterkort Date: 2006-03-11T08:17:43+09:00 Subject: [PATCH] small clarification for ruby man page --=-Uc+U2Y74y2L8wFCh1RfV Content-Type: text/plain Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit The attached patch (against latest CVS) clarifies that directories from $RUBYLIB are searched before teh standard directories are searched. The previous language said 'appended' which seemed to imply that they would be searched afterwards.
