Speaking of Ruby and documentation, I'd like to put in a suggestion for document strings. Emacs Lisp and Python both have it, and in both cases I think it is a really good thing and made heavy use of it. It means at run time one can get very specific documentation information. I leave open where and how this information is tagged. In both Emacs Lisp and Python this is a string that appears after the method "signature". However it is also possible that something could be done to use the comment before the method definition, the same as rdoc currently uses. Finally, I'd like to put in a plug for Paul
