There is obviously a lot of different kind of information needed.

The symbols explained is one thing and if it is done html style with
popups the information can be in the form as it is in the dictionary
in one popup and then another in the form of more detailed
information, yet another in the form of examples of use and possibly
with links to where it is used.

Then there may be cross-links from the likes of phrases etc examples
how a symbol can work together with other symbols.

There could be different paths into the helps like for beginners etc
what information should be used, what tutorials, helps, demos and labs
to look at in what order.
