Re: DDOC adds emphasis on symbols, so how to use $(LINK a) properly?
Just wanna follow up. Thanks for the replies everyone. Helped a lot! *** Hmm, this might be out of line, but I can't help myself. I got an idea. I guess a nice feature would be something like a built-in clean representation of macro arguments, so that you could define LINK as LINK = $0 Or perhaps an immutable built-in macro? LINK = $0 And then it would always work? I mean it seems most macros generate HTML, and then anything is fine really. But there are those special cases when you're generating something other than HTML, such as an URL, or even JavaScript-code, and you really need to get rid of all "cleverness". I've understood you always end posts like this with: Destroy! So there, I did it :) Cheers!
DDOC adds emphasis on symbols, so how to use $(LINK a) properly?
Hello! Just trying out the built-in ddoc, and it's great! But is there any way to link to other packages/modules, without adding "_" everywhere? Consider: // mylib/package.d /** * Also see $(LINK mylib.image.pixel.html) */ module mylib; ... This will generate a link, but the href will be "mylib.image.pixel.html", which won't work in my browser at least (Chromium). This can be fixed with: $(LINK _mylib.image.pixel.html) Ok, great. But wait a minute. How do I know that 'image' and 'pixel' won't be emphasized symbols in the future? It seems, to be sure, I must write: $(LINK2 _mylib._image._pixel.html) And then follows, if I link to any page, I must follow the same pattern? $(LINK _blog._site._com/_id/3532.html) I'm not even sure that works. But you see my worry? How do I use $(LINK)s properly? Cheers! Kind regards /kbit

You could define a custom macro DDOC_PSYMBOL=$0 I think anyway... to make it just emit the original text without the tag. I think the automatic emphasis is a mistake anyway because it often highlights homonyms which is just silly looking. Do perhaps disabling it with the above macro is a good idea, then you can manually $(B it) when you want it to be bolded instead of _ing it when you don't want it bolded. Thanks, that worked! I'm happy :) Cheers!

'mylib' is emphasized because it's the module name and you're documenting the module declaration there. That is, identifiers are only emphasized automatically when they're used in the declaration that is being documented. 'image' or 'pixel' would only be emphasized if you changed the module name to 'image' or 'pixel'. Hm, I see, so it's contextual? Would 'pixel' then be emphasized if I'm in the documentation of void pixel()? I just get the feeling I need to think before using LINK. I'd like to not think, too much. It doesn't also seem clear when this happens. Will $(LINK forum.com/pixel/98) work? Or does it need a "_"? Anyway, turning it off is good enough for me. Thanks for the reply!
rdmd --makedepend requires -of; how to just print to stdout?
In 2.065 rdmd would just print the stuff from --makedepend to stdout, now it seems to require -of. How to print to stdout like before? (On Windows) cheers! /k
