Hello,
Here is the latest Caml Weekly News, for the week of September 02 to
09, 2008.
1) Batteries Included documentation, updated preview
2) OCamlSpotter: OCaml compiler extension for source browsing
========================================================================
1) Batteries Included documentation, updated preview
------------------------------------------------------------------------
** David Teller announced:
We're happy to announce a new version of the API documentation,
available at
<https://forge.ocamlcore.org/docman/index.php?group_id=17&selected_doc_group_id=49&language_id=1
>.
It's still a preview, but a much more readable one than what we had
provided
so far.

2) OCamlSpotter: OCaml compiler extension for source browsing
Archive: <http://groups.google.com/group/fa.caml/browse_thread/thread/85cf1bba8731894a
>
------------------------------------------------------------------------
** Jun Furuse announced:
I have written a small compiler patch called ocamlspotter. It extends
-annot option and records all the variable definition locations, so
that we can jump from variable uses to their definitions easily from
editors such as emacs.
It is still in a beta version quality, but it is already very useful
to browse very complex ocaml project trees.
The source is available as a diff against a cvs version of OCaml
compiler at:
<http://www.furuse.info/jun/hacks/ocamlspotter/>
Comments and suggestions are welcome.
========================================================================
Using folding to read the cwn in vim 6+
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is a quick trick to help you read this CWN if you are viewing it
using
vim (version 6 or greater).
:set foldmethod=expr
:set foldexpr=getline(v:lnum)=~'^=\\{78}$'?'<1':1
zM
If you know of a better way, please let me know.
