Subject: ruby / rails newbie - Finding documentation in RDocs

Hi, I'm brand new to ruby, to which I've been attracted by rails (along
with many others, no doubt). I'm trying to hack together my first rxml
template, but my first dip into the rdocs is a total failure. I see
code like this...

  <% for column in Product.content_columns %>
    <th><%= column.human_name %></th>
  <% end %>

but I can't find a description of class Column anywhere - can't see it
in rails docs, core ruby docs, MySQL/Ruby docs - have I just missed it
or is it somewhere else, or isn't it a class at all but some sort of
dynamic ruby magic which I've totally misunderstood...

thanks for any help
