I’m using ‘ri’ (‘qri’, actually) on the terminal.

Is there any alterntive viewer that does hyperlinking? I’d like to be  
able to click on a method name and go to its documentation. Right now I  
need to type everything and it’s tedious.

I’m not looking for a beautiful viewer. Only for something to prevent a  
carpal tunnel syndrome.

gem server  
or generate html version of rdoc (usually rake rdoc should do it)
