Because (good) ruby is elegant enough to be self-documenting and informative on its own without needing go look somewhere else to figure out what it does.

- jrochkind1 7y agoI think you get those command-click references via static analysis for ruby in, uh, RubyMine? Some people swear by it. For just that reason. I have never used it. I am willing to consider that maybe if I did, I'd come to like it so much I'd never want to do without it. (There was a point I didn't think I needed syntax highlighting, now I know I read/understand code so much quicker with it, at least in ruby). Does VB Studio maybe give you it for free too? Not sure. Not sure how good these features are. Can't say why I and I think the majority of ruby devs don't try em.
