Hi Ignas, sorry for not replying earlier, but I don't have much time. So what follows is just from a really quick look.

Thanks a lot for looking into this. And you already seem to know more LDoc tricks than I ever did.

So far the community is just you. I guess since you are doing the work, you also get to decide how you want to do your work. > At the moment I have only ported the awful.rules module and started with > a few others.

No idea where to put it, but could you also write a short "how to document" tutorial? Something that points to the right parts of the LDoc documentation and adds some awesome-specifics. Perhaps some examples since I am confused about the @client[opt] that I am staring at right now, but it is easily understandable and obviously means an optional client parameter. The only thing that I saw so far that I didn't like is the @alias client in lib/awful/client.lua.in. The client docs are in luadoc/client.lua.in. However somewhere in Flyspray there is an issue about merging that with the C code and have LDoc generate the docs from there. Having the code with the docs makes it less likely that someone forgets to update them when changing the code. Since you are now my local LDoc expert, could you spent 10 minutes to look into how feasible this is and then just tell me "sorry, we should stay with the fake lua files for documenting the C API". > Cheers, > > Ignas Many, many thanks for looking into this area that was previously relatively neglected. Sorry for neglecting it.
