Well, it's not part of ruby core/stdlib, but it seems to be an instance method 
of Module or Class (or maybe Object) that, judging by its name, stores the 
description of a class/module (or maybe object) and presumably allows you to 
acces this description from a documentationt or source code browser of some 
sort - or something like that.

HTH,
Sebastian
