Who's using --format rdoc

Testing RSpec
1

I’m doing some housekeeping and just realised that the rdoc formatter
produces gibberish:
http://rspec.rubyforge.org/rdoc/files/EXAMPLES_rd.html

Will anyone protest if I just go ahead and remove it? (I can’t imagine
anyone using it, especially with the much better HTML formatter)

does this mean that:

rake spec:doc

will not produce plain text specdocs?

No, spec:doc will remain untouched.

I’m not talking about --format specdoc (which the spec:doc task uses),
but --format rdoc, which is supposed to create RDoc - a file you can
include in your RDocs. Since it’s not producing what RDoc needs, I’d
like to retire it.

I didn’t even know it could do that, so I won’t miss it. I live off
autotest + HTML (via TM).

Go ahead, I didn’t know was there :stuck_out_tongue:

HTML output is more fancy than RDoc :wink:
