> There are lot of functions and more of them will be added. I think it is 
> cumbersome to update wiki or ask users to go to wiki to find out 
> documentation. instead each user defined function can have an annotation 
> containing documentation and 'show functions' command or similar can show the 
> documentation to users on command line. it will also be easier to update the 
> documentation along with code.
