Yea, I'm doing the anchors in ddoc (see my other thread,
I also want to fix the encoding probblem).
But I still think more complex things like tables shouldn't
be in the compiler. It complicates it a lot. Eventually,
you'll want something external anyway to do things like
listings, tags, overview, search.
But, the anchor should be a relatively easy fix.
The compiler should try to provide as much information as possible (that
makes sense), anchors, cross-referencing, inheritance hierarchy, and so
on. Then it's up to the user how to use/display that information. Either
using plain HTML or combined with JavaScript or similar.
The ddoc generator in Descent can already handle these things: anchors,
cross-referencing, inheritance hierarchy and so on.
