The markup specification

Keywords/trigger symbols (all are followed by space, with one exception):

!!: print the text after the markup to the output, possibly using variable substitution (@LEXNAME@/@RULENAME@)
!!=: store the source code before the markup in the variable @CODE@, and print the text after the markup, possibly using variable substitution (@LEXNAME@/@RULENAME@/@CODE@); code whitespace preserved verbatim
!!≈: store the source code before the markup in the variable @CODE@, and print the text after the markup, possibly using variable substitution (@LEXNAME@/@RULENAME@/@CODE@); leading/trailing whitespace in the source code is removed, the rest squeezed
!!€fst-type:: Specifies the fst-type to run a test set against, must be followed by the test name, and must be the first line in a test set.
!!€: print positive test data to output
!!$: print negative test data to output

Variables:

@LEXNAME@: name of last lexc lexicon
@RULENAME@: name of last twol/cg3 rule
@CODE@: source code to the left of !!= / !!≈

The variables retain their values until they are reset (either by a new lexicon or rule name, or by a new !!≈ or !!= symbol).

Formatting rules for extracted comments

For all source files, the comments are formatted using jspwiki markup http://www.jspwiki.org/wiki/TextFormattingRules.

The markup specification

Build system behaviour

The build system will try to generate all files listed in $JSP_PAGES in $GTLANG/doc/Makefile.am. The jspwiki filenames are derived from the source file names according to the follwing scheme:

parentdir/sourcefile.lexc => sourcefile-parentdir.jspwiki

The jspwiki pages will be rebuilt whenever the corresponding source file is changed, in the standard way. Just type make, and the documentation will be rebuilt if needed.

There will also be built one large file, containing all the jspwiki documentation on one page.
