Hi,
I've been avoiding using ri for my docs because when I type it I can't
seem to exit out of it without closing terminal.
I've tried all the usual suspects like ctrl-c, ctrl-d, esc. Any ideas
on what I might be doing wrong?

q?
If you have a ':' prompt, you're in less (or your configured PAGER program).

ri uses less(1), press q to exit.

Try putting this line in your .bash_profile:
alias ri='ri -f ansi -T'
Much nicer behavior and display in Terminal. m.

I just put it in my .profile but didn't notice any difference.

Better:
export RI=-T -f ansi
