I’m shortsighted. I turn the fonts up to 11. I invest in large,  
expensive LCD screens.

So after a long time of squinting at [http://api.rubyonrails.org](http://api.rubyonrails.org),  
fumbling for the tiny scrollbar to find my favourite method (who knew  
writing lots of code could harm the ergonomy?), I finally snapped and  
wrote a Greasemonkey user script to help me out.

- works for the old-skool rdoc template (eg. [RDoc Documentation](http://ruby-doc.org/core))  
as well as Jamis’.
- has special support for [http://api.rubyonrails.org](http://api.rubyonrails.org) Act\* classes.
- is pretty flexible for the upgrading and improving.

- I’ve only tried it on Firefox 1.5. Perhaps I’ll have a look at  
getting it going on Creammonkey (which I first heard of yesterday 🙂

Hope you find it useful
