Hello. I've improved the Xapian Ruby bindings by adding aliasing a few
methods and making the code and examples more in line with Ruby
conventions. I also wrote a simple script to generate a skeleton so
that rdoc can automatically document some of the SWIG code to a
limited extent. I used a template I find somewhat nicer than the
default, but if you don't like it, it can easily be changed. The
generated html documentation is included. There is a rakefile for
generating the documentation, which most Ruby programmers would use,
although I provided the identical command in generate_rdocs.sh. Also
attached, I ported Enrico Zini's apt-xapian-index to Ruby from Python.
It looks like he hasn't gotten around to adding that to the Debian SVN
repository, so I've provided it here that it might also be used as
examples. I hope to use Xapian more in the future, thank you for
providing an excellent application.
