Ralf,
Thanks for your efforts on this sort of documentation for FriCAS. I have
looked at your readthedocs site but I find I am rather skeptical of any
advantage this form of documetation might have over hyperdoc. What is your
actual goal in this work?

Oh. What about full text search? Being able to use a URL to refer to
some documentation? There are all sorts of conversion options from .rst

Hi Waldek,
do we have a do keyword?
If I replace xdo by do, I get:

In the output of GETDATABASE, I sometimes see #2 and sometimes t#2. Both
seem to refer to the second parameter of the constructor. Why is there t#2?
I can not give really good explanation. The reason to have
'#2' and 't#2' is due to substitutions. Namely, during
Hi Waldek,
you said, I should report problems with )nopile mode.
The following program does not compile, if the semicolon in line is
missing.

I found 2 bugs about anonymous function.
1. In interpreter, when not specify type for an anonymous function,
the anonymous function loses variable bindings of free variables
in its body:
Example:
(1) - adder1 := x+-(y+-x+y)

Yes, good. But this searches only the names, right?

If you mean the on-side search field... I don't exactly know what the
corresponding javascript does. But since the site is on the web, there
are more search engines around.
There are all sorts of conversion
Thanks. This is known problem. I am still thinking on exact
rules that we should use: in which places semicolons are just
optional and in which are mandatory.
Do you want something different from what Aldor has?
At least in the program I've sent, I would expect the semicolon to be
optional

I never liked the HyperDoc-Browser very much. It feels unnatural to me.
I cannot easily cutpaste something from HyperDoc.
Well, easily cutpaste from HyperDoc is unimplemented. I do not
think that adding cutpaste ability to

Aldor grammar is long and IMHO overengineered. I
If you talk about modern format: my favorite would be something XML
based.
My point for rst and sphinx is:
* rst is a text markup that looks reasonably good also in plain form.
In other words, it's readable as ++ comments. TeX is too verbose.
* For most ++ comments basic reStructuredText
