Guys,
Please make sure you understand that there's no such thing as aliases
before you start working on that mini-project. There's only one type of
entries in the PHP function namespace, and that's functions. There's no
such thing as 'an alias'! Functions can be aliases to each other, but in
such a case, they're completely (100.0%) equal to each other. It's similar
to the way inodes and hard links work in UNIX filesystems.
The way to go that truly best describes reality would be:
- Documenting all non-deprecated functions, period. That includes FALIAS's
just as it includes FUNCTION's.
- Having a manually edited list of deprecated functions.
Note that as far as _() goes, it clearly falls in the first
category. Meaning that as long as it pollutes the global namespace and not
deprecated, it should be documented in its own right.
