Can someone who knows Scribble internals point me in the right direction
on this?
I have a generated "defproc" syntax object that gets formatted badly by
Scribble, as shown in screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/FmdQr.png
The "defproc" syntax object is generated in this case by piecing
together information from three syntax objects read from a source file:
(doc procedure soundex-ordinal
"Yields the Soundex ordinal value of character "
(racket chr)
[...])
(provide/contract (soundex-ordinal (-> char? (or/c soundex-ordinal? #f))))
(define (soundex-ordinal chr)
[...])
Note that the other "defproc" in the screenshot is formatted fine. That
"defproc" result of that one is an identifier, rather than a
parenthesized form.
The "syntax->datum" looks fine, and formats correctly if pasted into a
file and processed from there:
@(defproc (soundex-ordinal (chr char?))
(or/c soundex-ordinal? #f)
"Yields the Soundex ordinal value of character "
(racket chr)
[...])
I'm wondering whether the problem is the combinations of syntax location
info in the generated "defproc" syntax object. I try to preserve the
location info of the individual pieces, and often use
"quasisyntax/loc". Also, the "(or/c soundex-ordinal? #f)" syntax object
should be intact just as read originally, including its parentheses.
