RDoc is an application that produces documentation for one or more Ruby source files. RDoc includes the rdoc and ri tools for generating and displaying online documentation.

At this point in time, RDoc 2.x is a work in progress and may incur further API changes beyond what has been made to RDoc 1.0.1. Command-line tools are largely unaffected, but internal APIs may shift rapidly.
