Hi all !  
As I’m new to Ruby and Rails, I often take a look at the Rails/Ruby  
API. I don’t work with “plain” Ruby code and so I can’t distinguish  
between methods provided by Ruby and those provided by Rails. I use  
two API documentations: [http://corelib.rubyonrails.org/](http://corelib.rubyonrails.org/) and  
[Create A Perfect Resume In 5 Minutes! | Online Resume Builder](http://www.railsdocumentation.org/api/). My question is, if there is  
some kind of merged documentation, which covers plain Ruby methods as  
well as Rails. It’s very annoying to search a method in the Rails API,  
not to find it and than search in the Ruby API.

Thank you very much in advance  
Christoph
