.Nm
is a CLI front end for the Ruby API reference.
You can search and read API reference for classes and methods with
.Nm .
.Pp
.Nm
is a part of Ruby.
.Pp
.Ar target
can be one of the following forms:
.Bl -diag -offset indent
.It Class
for classes
.It Class::method
for class methods
.It Class#method
for instance methods
.It Class.method
for both class and instance methods
.It method
for both class and instance methods
.El
.Pp
All class names may be abbreviated to their minimum unambiguous form. If a name
is ambiguous, all valid options will be listed.
.Pp
For example:
.Bd -literal -offset indent
ri Fil
ri File
ri File.new
ri zip
.Ed
.Pp
Note that shell quoting may be required for method names containing
punctuation:
.Bd -literal -offset indent
ri 'Array.[]'
ri compact\!
.Ed
.Sh OPTIONS
.Bl -tag -width "1234567890123" -compact
.Pp
