One great new feature of rubygems 0.9 is that we now have ri for
installed gems as well.
That's super!
I'm not getting this for rails, even though I have the gems installed.
Why is this, and how can I add rails' to ri?
You need to use gemri (comes with rubygems) if you are on Ruby 1.8.4 or older.

C:\>gemri -c | grep -i acti
Abbrev, ActionWebService, Archive, Archive::Tar, ArgumentError,
Net::SSH::UserAuth::Methods::KeyboardInteractive,
No rails.
I'm finding that I get gemdocs even with ri, but not for all packages.
I get them for Rails' plugins, for instance, but not for rails proper.
Does anyone know how I can control which ones appear?
Also, a problem is when a plugin or monkeypatch adds things to a class
- they know appear in the class's ri, even when that extension is only
part of a particular lib. Is there a way to shut this off?
ActionWebService is part of Rails.
You probably need to build the rest of the ri information.
gem rdoc --no-rdoc --ri gemname
for each part of Rails.

You will need to generate the ri for packages built before 0.9.0. These packages never built their ri documentation.

gem rdoc --no-rdoc --ri gemname
will add them. If you want to remove them permanently you can delete them out of the gem's doc dir. If you want to suppress them install ruby from CVS and use the new flags to ri, --system, --site, --gems, and --home.

A CVS ruby has ri options for this. I also have a half-updated gemri that will allow you to show ri only for a gem. I'll finish it and add it to rubygems sometime after 1.8.5p2 because it depends on features that don't exist yet.

Thank you, Eric, for the great info. I followed your directions and
they worked beautifully.
