Summary | Add URL! to function specs as link for HELP/DOC |
---|---|
Description | HELP/DOC will open detailed help for function in browser. However with user functions this will result in 404 on rebol.com. Allowing URL! in function specs could add HELP/DOC support also to user functions. |
Example code |
my-func: func [ "My custom function" http://www.my-server.com/my-func.html ][ ...code... ] |

Downside would be that changing the server would require changing all of the function specs, rather than just the HELP function. Upside would be for functions not built into Rebol, but added on by third parties. If we have the existing behavior as a fallback for when no URL is provided in the function spec, and make sure that no mezzanines have the URL in their specs, this could be a good idea. |
