the syntax for installing RDoc in our program.  
I searched the net for some resources, but did not find any. Please  
help.

C:\>gem install rdoc  
C:\>gem rdoc --all

or are you looking for the core rdocs? Which distro are you using?  
-r

Thanks Roger.  
But the command “gem install rdoc” gives the following error:  
ERROR: [http://gems.rubyforge.org/](http://gems.rubyforge.org/) does not appear to be a repository  
ERROR: could not find gem rdoc locally or in a repository

Can you give the syntax for implementation of RDoc in a ruby program?
