Subject:Help: Language Reference manuals From:Connie Winch <CEW -at- MACOLA -dot- USA -dot- COM> Date:Thu, 5 Oct 1995 15:39:12 LCL
If you have ever documented a programming language and
created a language reference manual, I'd appreciate any
advice you have, specifically regarding organization.
One of my major questions is this: Is a quick reference
section (breaking commands down by category) a necessity?
Also, does anyone know of a list server for programmers/
software developers? If so, please send me the address.
Please respond to me directly. Thanks very much.
