=Rocket Doc-it: Community Commented Rdocs

== What it is

- \*Rocket Dock-it is a simple way for the Ruby community to interact  
with  
Rdocs. Most of the user documentation for Ruby is spread out over many  
different websites. Rocket Docket inspects the file being sent back and  
inserts remote calls in certain places when generated Rdoc code is  
called.  
These remote calls can update the html that was put inside of the Rdoc  
code  
with the comments from the community. This system can work off the shelf  
with any Rdoc generated code. You can host a local source of the Rdoc  
code  
or you can use a remote website for the Rdoc soource.

== Requirements

Website:  
Javascript turned on.

Your own copy:  
A database, a local copy of rdocs or a remote url,rails,properly  
compiled

For a while today Rocket Doc-it was lacking the links for comments.  
You should see “Add first comment!” or “Comments (#)” under each  
method. This has been corrected and I am working to prevent this from  
happening again.

Thank you,
