List of Ruby source files to to be loaded into Gem Finder.

Display Options

The following options are available in checkboxes at the bottom of the window

Flat View

If checked, the methods of the current class and all of its ancestors (both classes and modules) will be displayed in the method box. It is as if the inheritance hierarchy has been flattened into a single leverl.

Class Methods

If checked, the class methods of the selected class/module will be displayed instead of the instance methods. If Flat View is also selected, all inherited class methods are displayed as well.

System

If checked, all of the Ruby system classes and modules are displayed in the classes list box, along with the Tk classes and the Gem Finder classes. Leaving System unchecked allows an unobstructed view of the user's classes.
