I'll resurrect here my idea of a version of the Manual that can be
annotated by users with comments, links to example code, links to
definitions, etc. My impetus for the suggestion was the need for a
Manual that is more easily understandable by new and novice Lua
scripters but I see no reason it could not also add gloss for advanced
coders such as you suggest.
Best regards,
Paul
