##I guess you already found this, but it's called ri.bat which is just a
##wrapper for ri. And the source for ri is in lib\ruby\1.8\rdoc\ri.

#you guess wrong, i'm dumber than you think :-)

#Thanks for the info, Cris. I'll check..

ok, i got a hack.

pardon me if it's too elementary or buggy or what,  but hey, it works great
for me and i have lesser worry on my casing/typing :-)

btw, is there a proper_case in ruby? like "test".proper_case => "Test"

patch follows
