Dear Friends of Rails, I would like to make a suggestion: There are two famous (German) projects out there: SelfHTML [1] and SelfPHP [2], which are some kind of on- and offline (!) documentations. They contain a nearly complete reference and some tutorials. Is anyone interested in helping me to build something similar for Rails? I just have some ideas (like the name and the domain: handcar.de), so any help will be appreciated. With kind regards Nicolai Reuschling __ [1] http://selfhtml.org/ [2] http://www.selfphp.de/

I wasn''t aware of that Firefox plugin. It looks pretty neat, but isn''t this just a link collection to online documents. I had a solution in mind, having all the files offline in HTML files. Anyway I will have a second look at it. Nicolai
I just installed devboi and it''s fairly nice. It has CSS/HTML docs too which is a great bonus. As for offline capability, notice that there are 2 separate downloads - one for online, one for offline. You also need to install Rails support separately. One thing that''s missing (AFAIK), is search. Often I know a section of the name of something I need, but not what class it''s in. The FF search seems to ignore the devboi frame, even when it has focus.
