Excellent work. Works perfectly on my osx box.
Though, standard ri goes in to 'less' mode, I kinda got used to that.
Could it be possible that with some ~/.fastri configuration file I
could control if I want to pass it though 'less -R' ? (I'm assuming
not everyone wants it as a default.)
Now to alias ri to fri and somehow make it fallback if the server
isn't running =)
