Docile.jl works great. With Lexicon (or base Julia 0.4dev), you get nice REPL help.
Mkdocs (http://mkdocs.org) works great for taking Markdown from Docile output along with other Markdown files to make online documentation. Mkdocs is super easy and works great with Github Pages. It also works with readthedocs (but I haven't tried that). Here is an example of package documentation developed with Docile and Mkdocs (still a work in progress): https://tshort.github.io/Sims.jl/ On Fri, Jan 9, 2015 at 3:41 AM, Ján Dolinský <jan.dolin...@2bridgz.com> wrote: > Hi, > > I would like to know how to write a help (comment) text e.g. for a module > function so that once module is loaded it is displayed if in REPL help mode. > E.g. for "sum" function > help?>sum > displays brief help text for "sum" > > Thanks, > Jan >
