I am looking for something along these lines - http://stdlib.rubyonrails.org/, http://htmlunit.sourceforge.net/apidocs/index.html. Doesn't the FPC community have something similar? What about http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/rtl/index.html http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/fcl/index.html ? Michael. I already know about these and use them, but it is very easy to lose your point of origin when you are navigating among the pages. Actually it is their shortcomings whch prompted me to ask this question.
For classes, I agree. But the Java layout is somewhat awkward for global identifiers...
I am referring more to the page design and layout itself, the way they use frames so you don't lose you bearings as you move back and forth.
I understand what you mean. The floating popup window isn't always a help... Maybe we should think about generating some kind of frame-based layout as well.
PS. Can the above 2 sites be subdomained into rtl.freepascal.org, fcl.freepascal.org? It makes searching using Google site search much easier. If they are plain html files I don't mind having the raw html so I can place them in my own website where I can site search them.
They are plain HTML, so you can download the archive files from the website: http://www.freepascal.org/down/docs/docs.var Michael. -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
