Since we are talking about making things easier for newbies, here is
my wish list:

1. a command line tool to extract documentation from modules;
2. some help functionality in the REPL, for instance

   - ? List

could give the signature of the List structure, without opening it;
3. autocompletion, so List.<TAB> would give me all the possible
completions.
4. the documentation of the core library in a single HTML file, so that
I could search it from the browser;
5. an alphabetical index of all the modules and functions in Alice;
6. an interactive debugger, possibly integrated with Emacs.

Maybe some of the items in the above list are already available or in
the working?
