| Abstract | |
|
ConTeXt has a nice & consistent multilingual interface, but many commands are undocumented. Moreover, a better support in text editors is needed, to assist users with auto-completion of known commands and (only) the relevant options for the specific command.
The aim of the project is to: a) Refactor texshow (http://texshow.contextgarden.net/), a wiki-like application that enables community to improve documentation and descriptions of commands. This includes writing import & export of descriptions to some friendly format (html or pdf). b) Develop tools to help me extract all available commands and their options from ConTeXt source code to make texshow a complete reference (many commands are missing at the moment). c) Add support for other TeX flavours: TeX/pdfTeX/XeTeX primitives, plain TeX/LaTeX macros (though not trying to generate a complete reference for the latter). d) Create auto-complete support (based on TeXShow) for at least one text editor (TextMate). |
