Hmm, in gb.ncurses I once documented all the functions in some custom way, inspired by the Linux kernel, but soon found that a waste of effort and space. But, yes, if it is actually visible on the wiki without further actions, that would be the best thing imaginable. > > That way, at least components written in Gambas could be first > > documented inside the source code. > > > > For the components written in C/C++, we need a tool that extracts the > > help comments from the source code and put them in the *.info file the > > same way the Gambas compiler does. Concerning that tool, wouldn't a simple sed or awk script suffice? Is there any reference for this markdown derivate for Gambas (found nothing obvious in the wiki)? I imagine that this tool can be done completely in some hours, at most.
