Docstrings?

[davep]

Less of an issue, more of a suggestion.

Seeing the help text slowly grow, I'm wondering if it might be an idea to add emacs-a-like docstrings to the system. Not only would that keep the documentation with each function, it'd also allow the help command deliver help on specific functions and variables.

This is a good idea, but it will probably have to wait until actual strings (as opposed to quoted lists) are supported.

[davep]

Ahh, good point, I didn't think about that. :)

I've just added support for strings in the latest commit. It might still be buggy, but something like

(js-apply 'alert "Hello world!")

now works as expected.

[davep]

Nice. This means that there's now enough for me to try something I've been wanting to try.

Meanwhile, do you want any and all string bugs reported, or is it a little too early for that?

[AlexNisnevich]

Go for it!
