I mentioned this in another thread, but didn't get an answer.
For me, under 1.9.1p429 (RubyInstaller) under Windows, ri File says only this:
(begin)
------------------------------------------------------- Class: File < IO
    [no description]
···
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Class methods:
--------------
    binread
(end)
ri IO shows:
(begin)
    More than one method matched your request.  You can refine your
    search by asking for information on one of:
TkItemConfigMethod::__IGNORE_UNKNOWN_CONFIGURE_OPTION__ [gem tk_as_gem-0.1.0]
TkItemConfigMethod::__set_IGNORE_UNKNOWN_CONFIGURE_OPTION__! [gem
tk_as_gem-0.1.0]
(end)
Is something missing from my Ruby installation?
