That's a nice notation, is [float x,y,z] meaning 'array of' or
'optional', or what?
A good point, we do need _some_ standard for specifying return values,
altho I'm happy with the LuaDoc convention. Your notation looks easy
to machine parse.
A sufficiently determined script could scrape the manual and generate
pseudo-Lua for LuaDoc. I've often wanted to reference the Lua API
from my LuaDocs.
The manual is presumably generated from some source (HTML being so
shitty for writing); would it be possible to get that original source,
in whatever format?
