A requirement is a prerelease if any of the versions inside of it are prereleases
A version is considered a prerelease if it contains a letter.
Can be used for quick navigation to the rdoc documentation. You can then define a search shortcut for your browser. E.g. in Firefox connect ‘shortcut:rdoc’ to localhost:8808/rdoc?q=%s template. Then you can directly open the ActionPack documentation by typing ‘rdoc actionp’. If there are multiple hits for the search term, they are presented as a list with links.
Search algorithm aims for an intuitive search:
first try to find the gems and documentation folders which name starts with the search term
search for entries, that contain the search term
show all the gems
If there is only one search hit, user is immediately redirected to the documentation for the particular gem, otherwise a list with results is shown.
Note: please adjust paths accordingly use for example ‘locate yaml.rb’ and ‘gem environment’ to identify directories, that are specific for your local installation
install Ruby sources
cd /usr/src sudo apt-get source ruby
generate documentation
rdoc -o /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/doc/core/rdoc \ /usr/lib/ruby/1.8 ruby1.8-1.8.7.72
By typing ‘rdoc core’ you can now access the core documentation
Creates a new SourceList from an array of sources.

Generate a BlockQuote element as a string.
cite can either be a string, give the URI for the source of the quoted text, or a hash, giving all attributes of the element, or it can be omitted, in which case the element has no attributes.
The body is provided by the passed-in no-argument block
blockquote("http://www.example.com/quotes/foo.html") { "Foo!" } #=> "<BLOCKQUOTE CITE=\"http://www.example.com/quotes/foo.html\">Foo!</BLOCKQUOTE>

Handles a doctype declaration. Any attributes of the doctype which are not supplied will be nil. # EG, <!DOCTYPE me PUBLIC “foo” “bar”> @p name the name of the doctype; EG, “me” @p pub_sys “PUBLIC”, “SYSTEM”, or nil. EG, “PUBLIC” @p long_name the supplied long name, or nil. EG, “foo” @p uri the uri of the doctype, or nil. EG, “bar”
