oh, I'd never used that with ri (actually, I didn't use ri that much, for the

In HEAD, you have
 $ fri -h
 ...
    -P, --[no-]pager                 Use pager.
                                     (default: don't)
        --pager-cmd PAGER            Use pager PAGER.

By default, it doesn't use a pager, unless you are doing full-text searches.

Yes, I'm thinking about the best way to achieve this; the obvious candidate is 
latent semantic indexing.

You cannot keep playing the newbie card for years ;) ... you've been around
since Jan 2001 at least! (I found your 1st post, according to blade, in
RubyConf's foundational thread [ruby-talk:9868]!)
