I would have thought that however the doc is produced, it's possible to produce an html version of it; so that an optional "docpage" or "documentation_url" field in the rockspec description table would work around the lack-of-standards problem ? Even if the only thing done with it was a "documentation" link in repositories/rocks/ that would still be most useful. (It's a mystery to me (nor being a user of either) why git and luaforge pages don't seem to offer documentation buttons...) Has anybody ever suggested a luarocks show modulename command (like aptitude show) ? It could display the version, source url, description and dependencies, and whether installed or not ...
