Thank you, to everone who worked on this. It's quite an
improvement.
Problem:
http://dlang.org/library/std/compiler/vendor.html is a 404
Recommendation:
I really liked the immediate link to the source file on
github in the old layout. If possible please add it to the
new layout.
Since (IIRC) DDox parses JSON layout, I think it is capable of
generating exact links to the file:line of each symbol. That
would be neat, as it allows quickly seeing the implementation
if the documentation is not sufficient.
I wanted to do just this so I considered adding a predefined
macro to ddoc to get line numbers like I did to get filenames
(I needed SRCFILENAME to add the Improve This Page button) but
the line numbers would pretty quickly lose sync between master
and the documentation so that would also require integrating
the release tag into the documentation somehow so I gave up on
that idea.
So... don't link to master?
The dmd repo has a VERSION file. Can that be used to link to the
respective tag instead?
