Actually there is now some (not very good) documentation. Both the library and grammar are documented http://felix-lang.org/web/reference.fdoc This is brand new "documentation generated from comments" sort of like Python doc strings or Doxygen documentation. The tools for making the docs are still crude. This solves a long standing problem, keeping the documentation in sync with the library. Currently there's only one active developer (me). Felix is a BIG system, like any production programming language. ~/felix>flx_ls build/release/lib '.*(cpp|hpp|flx|flxh)' | wc 280 280 5698 If I worked 5 days a week and spent one day on each file, it would take over a year to document everything. And that doesn't include the compiler or tools, the build system, the configuration ... :-) There's a tutorial: http://felix-lang.org/web/tutorial.fdoc as well as the start of a slideshow :) however this: > Log Message: > ----------- > Merge EXPR_lambda, EXPR_object into EXPR_lambda (kind, ...). > > Which makes it easy to add EXPR_lambda(`Generator,...). is an internal change to the compiler, which has no impact on users, except that: > So now we have anonymous generators. The lack of these was an inconsistency. Felix has fun: a function, no side effects proc: a procedure, side effects, no return value gen: a generator, a function which may have side-effects Previously you could have anonymous fun and proc but not gen. Now you can have anonymous gen. This doesn't make it harder to learn, it makes it easier. -- john skaller skal...@users.sourceforge.net http://felix-lang.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
