💖 docidx_lang_faq — the docidx language FAQ 💖

okay bestie, so this is docidx_lang_faq(n), a page from the Documentation tools collection, and I'm gonna walk you through it like we're texting at 2am. let's go 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

docidx_lang_faq — the docidx language faq, fr fr. that's literally the whole name section, no notes. 💅

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

💜 OVERVIEW 💜

👑 WHAT IS THIS DOCUMENT? 👑

so here's the tea: right now this document is mainly a placeholder. like, it's the cute empty journal waiting to be filled in with all the commonly asked questions about the docidx markup language and its companions — plus the answers to those questions. it's giving "coming soon" energy, ngl. 🙈

and listen, if you've got questions (or better yet, answers) that you think should live in here, please report them, and the page tells you exactly how in the Bugs, Ideas, Feedback section down below. don't be shy, bestie, we want your brain in here. 🫶

🌈 EXAMPLES 🌈

🍓 WHERE DO I FIND DOCIDX EXAMPLES? 🍓

okay so this is a little awkward: we have no direct examples of documents written using docidx markup. like, zero. none. 😭

BUT. here's the slay part. the doctools processor dtplite does generate a table of contents when it's processing a set of documents written in doctools markup. and the intermediate file for that table of contents? it uses docidx markup. and it is not deleted when generation completes. so those files can totally serve as examples. iconic behavior honestly. ✨

dtplite ships as part of Tcllib, so to get your hands on it you need one of these two things:

  1. A snapshot of Tcllib. How to retrieve such a snapshot and the tools required for this are described at Development Snapshots [/wiki?name=Development+Snapshots]
  2. A Tcllib release archive. They are available at the home [/home] page.

pick your fighter, both are valid. 🎀

💀 BUGS, IDEAS, FEEDBACK 💀

ngl, this document and the package it describes will undoubtedly contain bugs and other problems. that's just how it is, no cap. please report such in the category doctools of the Tcllib Trackers [http://core.tcl.tk/tcllib/reportlist]. and please also report any ideas for enhancements you may have for either the package and/or the documentation — we want all of it, every last crumb. 🧚

when you're proposing code changes, please provide unified diffs, i.e the output of diff -u. that's the move. 🔥

also, note further that attachments are strongly preferred over inlined patches. the way to make an attachment: go to the Edit form of the ticket immediately after its creation, and then use the left-most button</> in the secondary navigation bar. iykyk. 💅
