add documentation for srfi-4, srfi-13, srfi-14 and srfi-18 to manual

[felix winkelmann]

That way those units would be covered by chicken-doc.

This should also include srfi-12

Should we import the entire contents of each SRFI or just the definitions (procedures, parameters, etc.)?

If only the definitions, then a link from the main page to the SRFI text would still be provided.

I added srfi-13, srfi-14, srfi-18 to the manual and updated srfi-1 with better markup.

I have srfi-12 ready, but need to know how to add it. Procedures are currently in Unit library. Should I emulate the srfi-18 doc and move those procedures into a new document "Unit srfi-12" along with the new documentation? I did not do this yet because technically srfi-12 is not a real unit. Mainly I just need to know what to call the new document.

srfi-4 is still forthcoming.

Relevant SVN changes so far are r17856,r17857,r17860,r17861

FYI I wrote a generic html to svnwiki parser to handle the conversion plus some additional hacks for individual SRFIs (no two are alike!) Naturally some content hacking is still required. If you are interested the code is available at

git clone git://3e8.org/srfi-doc.git

Uploaded srfi-4 now as r17862

I would integrate it into the library unit page.

Cool - we should put this into SVN (perhaps the "maintenance/" directory?)

Thanks!

That would of course a silly thing to do. I suggest adding a new chapter named Exceptions.

[felix winkelmann]

I see that this has been added. Excellent - thanks, zbigniew! I have also added the chapter to the git repo.

Does this mean we can close this ticket?
