ri and docu

[shevegen]

Hi

does anyone of you know where ri actually stores the content of its
request, or how it is generated?

I want to put it onto a local website with links (i am lazy), but
looking at ri/rdoc's source is too cumbersome (i'd actually prefer to
parse the .rb files myself and write something up, instead of reading
other people's complex code )

504 % cd /usr/local/share/ri/1.8/system/
505 % ls | head -5

You can also tell rdoc to generate html... then again, you're not
doing anything new and might be better off using http://ruby-doc.org/
