RDoc is an application that produces documentation for one or more  
Ruby source
files.  RDoc includes the +rdoc+ and +ri+ tools for generating and  
displaying
online documentation.

At this point in time, RDoc 2.x is a work in progress and may incur  
further
API changes beyond what has been made to RDoc 1.0.1.  Command-line  
tools are
largely unaffected, but internal APIs may shift rapidly.

See RDoc for a description of RDoc's markup and basic use.

Changes:

### 2.4.2 / 2009-03-25

* 2 Minor Enhancements
   * Added --pipe for turning RDoc on stdin into HTML
   * Added rdoc/task.rb containing a replacement for rake/ 
rdoctask.rb.  Use
     RDoc::Task now instead of Rake::RDocTask.
