Good morning everyone,
Mahlzeit!

Can you please advise, I am looking for a good reference to all ruby
standart lib. As I can`t see what I need on rdoc.info or
http://www.ruby-doc.org/core/

For example, I want to see everithing about standart lib rbconfig, what
keys are in RbConfig::CONFIG, what other modules instead of CONFIG are
present in RbConfig, what methods and etc

First choice would be

$ ri RbConfig

You can also use IRB and do

$ irb19
irb(main):001:0> RbConfig.constants.sort
=> [:CONFIG, :DESTDIR, :MAKEFILE_CONFIG, :TOPDIR]
irb(main):002:0> RbConfig::CONFIG.keys.sort
=> ["ALLOCA", "AR", "ARCHFILE", "ARCH_FLAG", "AS", "ASFLAGS",
"BASERUBY", "BUILTIN_TRANSSRCS", "CAPITARGET", "CC", "CCDLFLAGS",

Good morning everyone,

You're simply looking at the wrong place - the "core" Ruby classes are
considered separate from the standard library, even though you get
both when you install Ruby.

http://rdoc.info/stdlib contains the standard library documentation -
everything you see on that list is part of it, with the different
versions referring to Ruby versions. "core" is the core classes.
