These are like the .api files of SciTE.IIRC, it's possible to annoate arguments with @format etc. Can LDoc be used to generate a table of function/arguments to generate such a structure?Most definitely. You may have to look at the raw internal representation (read the end of the manual ;))
Will do. Cheers! Good work BTW.
No editor flames wars here! I use SE because it supports all the languages I code in - C/C++, mainframe languages (HLASM assembler, PL/1, COBOL, REXX), Java, Javascript, HTML, Python, Ruby and now Lua. I'm still a neophyte wrt Lua as I've only been looking at it seriously for a few months but we have big plans for it as a scripting engine for the modernization and legacy integration of enterprise applications on IBM mainframes.(This has been an extremely tame war, and nobody has been religious at all!)
