My only request is to include this command in the README file that
is included with the source distribution in a section immediately after the
installation portion of this document. I make this request is so that
everyone who is using ruby in a development environment--myself
included--won't forget this helpful step.
Not a bad suggestion. I've gotten into the habit of running
./configure --help
whenever installation anything from source to see what the defaults are,
but it's easy to miss things. I would prefer that the docs were
installed by default; I'd be surprised if a large number of people
install Ruby but skip the docs.
Please let me know what I need to do or who I need to contact in order to
get this into the README file.
I believe that would have to be discussed on the ruby-core list.
