Hi Keith,

What about one lua table per command? See also: - http://meeting.contextgarden.net/2010/talks/2010-09-14-peter-referencelua/

this looks nice.

Some connection to wiki would be useful, too - once a command definition is prepared for PDF manual, it would be good to have a generator which would convert and add info to wiki.

I don't know whether it is possible; and I'm aware that much efforts of many contributors were passed to wiki...

But I'm thinking about how to avoid doubling documentation work (not: wiki <-> PDF <-> whatever, but: something (be it Lua) -> {PDF, wiki, whatever}).

Wolfgang has redone many of the xml defs (not yet finished afaik). anyway, as long as I can construct a "cont-en.xml" file from whatever data it's fine for me (manipulating and filtering xml is rather convenient.) Makes me wonder ... did anyone ever look into http://sputnik.freewisdom.org/en/Lua it stores info in lua and it could probably be used for managing such a reference beast.
