public

Look for a ‘call-seq’ in the comment to override the normal parameter handling. The For example, all of the following will be used as the :call-seq:

# :call-seq:
#   ARGF.readlines(sep=$/)     -> array
#   ARGF.readlines(limit)      -> array
#   ARGF.readlines(sep, limit) -> array
#
#   ARGF.to_a(sep=$/)     -> array
#   ARGF.to_a(limit)      -> array
#   ARGF.to_a(sep, limit) -> array

    # we must handle situations like the above followed by an unindented first
    # comment.  The difficulty is to make sure not to match lines starting
    # with ARGF at the same indent, but that are after the first description
    # paragraph.
    if @text =~ /^\s*:?call-seq:(.*?(?:\S).*?)^\s*$/ then
      all_start, all_stop = $~.offset(0)
      seq_start, seq_stop = $~.offset(1)

      # we get the following lines that start with the leading word at the
      # same indent, even if they have blank lines before
      if $1 =~ /(^\s*\n)+^(\s*\w+)/ then
        leading = $2 # ' *    ARGF' in the example above
        re = %
          \A(
             (^\s*\n)+
             (^#{Regexp.escape leading}.*?\n)+
            )+
          ^\s*$
        %m
