Alrighty then!
It doesn’t sound like "rido" — it sounds like "righto", because that’s what it is. Per the paywalled OED entry:
It means exactly the same thing Right! means. Their earliest citation is from Kipling:
Notice that they reference righty-ho, which sounds like "righteo". That’s pretty common, too. Again, means the same ol’ thing by any other nameo.
