I have now seen this nice piece of work on U++ wiki:

http://upp.wikispaces.com/Strings

and also have discussion with one of users per icq and now I am thinking that perhaps we should adopt less verbose and more space (and time) saving style of documentation, more or less drop the "parameter" documentation in most places - it is true that often there is a little to be written about individual parameters, so often it ends like

len.......The length.

which is quite stupid...

Opinions?

100 times "yes"! And, I think, I had mentioned before:
1. first of all - short descriptions (general idea) of all classes.
2. a small good example is worth of 1000 words.

Well, I guess, we did agree on that, however, there still needs to be a form of "reference", listing all methods...

List all methods?
1. declare your var and use Assistant++...
2. or enter e.g "Ctrl::" in your code (filters would be usefull!..)
3. or go (Navigate, Jump) to the appropriate *.h *.cpp file.

But when after 10 minutes "navigation" to find appropriate Topic++ file I find that someone wastes his time explaining what length is and I can't find more difficult classes analysis that makes me really angry... Smile

And btw, how is the situation with F1?
