lambtex docs: minor issues

Open edwintorok opened this issue 10 years ago • 1 comments

  • Broken links in bibliography [tries to go to ./blah and ./bah]:
\where{\link{bah}{http://www.w3.org/Math/}}
\where{\link{blah}{http://www.ctan.org/get/biblio/bibtex/contrib/doc/btxdoc.pdf}}
  • <lang=ocaml> doesn't work, I have to use <lang=caml>. source-highlight --lang-list doesn't show ocaml for me on Debian unstable, GNU Source-highlight 3.1.7 (library: 4:0:0). Am I missing a patch, do I have out-of-date lang files?
  • undocumented block command decor
  • the quickref lists 3 more commands: macrodef, theoremdef, boxoutdef. Are these something internal to implementing macros/theorems/boxouts or something the end-user should use?
  • glyph doesn't show up in hierarchy.pdf / appendix A in manual (only picture is there)
  • \cite only supports one reference (in LaTeX you can have multiple comma-separated citations with a single command). The documentation should explicitly mention this to make it easier for people coming from LaTeX.
  • there is no comment character in lambtex, this should be mentioned in the manual, and suggested that for now you can use \newmacro{comment}{1}{&zwnj;} and \comment{stuff to be ignored}
  • the tabular alignment docs say left-aligned and strong. I was puzzled for a moment on what a strong left alignment is when I realized that strong here refers to bold, so perhaps put bold in paranthesis.

Thanks for the heads up! Note that the quickref is out-of-date, and it should be ignored for now. Also, \cite does support multiple citations, but the syntax is different than LaTeX's: \cite{ref1}{ref2}{ref3}...
