fastri

FastRI is an alternative to the ri command-line tool. It is *much* faster, and also allows you to offer RI lookup services over DRb. FastRI is smarter than ri, and can find classes anywhere in the hierarchy without specifying the "full path". FastRI can perform fast full-text searches. It also knows about gems, and can tell you e.g. which extensions to a core class were added by a specific gem.
