Here's my try for this case: * problem: the help system is not consistent or effective in how information is formatted and displayed * possible requirements: * help files as patches (more intuitive) * each object's arguments, inlets, and outlets should be clearly explained * meta information should be encoded to allow a keyword searching system to index help patches * each library should contain the author's contact information * time frame for a resolution: 3 months
I agree. In possible requirements, i will add :
in a web page (like Pd Flossmanual). Therefore the help (on the web) should be always up to date.
I have developped a PHP script for this problem (I can share this script with the GEM rectangle object). It only needs a very simple pure Pd abstraction. I have to revise the layout. We need to work together (with motivated people) to define this help because there are other good ideas. ++
