So I see at least 3 different kinds of documentation.

Ralf,

You have said you are a fan of LP but what you describe here looks to me like a more conventional view of documentation. Are you saying that LP would only apply to your 'C) Maintainer documentation'?

I seems to me (a view I may have got from Tim, but don't blame him if I've got it wrong) is that a user may go backwards and forwards between different ways of working from using FriCAS as a calculator to maintaining/writing scripts, SPAD and system code and there are lots of graduations in-between.

Documentation needs to support this. So you may start using FriCAS as a calculator but then need to know how a function works, so you drill down and get more and more details of the algorithm and eventually, if you keep going, you are looking at the code.

I'm not sure that what is in the existing 'literate content' is purely what you would classify as 'C) Maintainer documentation' so I still think all documentation should be in the same place so users don't have to guess how it is classified or look in several places.
