Embedding RDoc in a Rails app

After putting together a "toy" application that plays Hangman
in a rather devious manner:

  http://tchm.cfcl.com

I made its (syntax-colored) source code available online:

  http://tchm.cfcl.com/code/index

then made the generated RDoc pages available, as well:

  http://tchm.cfcl.com/rdoc/page?path=doc/app/index.html

I'm rather a Ruby (and Rails) Nuby, so I suspect that parts of
the implementation will make some readers shudder.  However, I
haven't seen anyone else doing this sort of thing, so I thought
folks on this list might like to see a proof of concept.

If I get really inspired, perhaps I'll look into adding some of
the features I like on other documentation generators.  As one
example, I'd love to have the sort of clickable diagrams that
Doxygen uses Graphviz to produce...
