From the doc-meeting-protocol (phpdoc/RFC/protocol_20020310) 17. Examples The examples in the manual should be more consistent and useful. A draft styleguide alredy exists under phpdoc/RFC/coding_standards. Additional ideas that came up were syntax highlighting and linking functions in examples to their manual pages, which need either post-processing of the HTML output or the ext/xslt changes already discussed. We also talked about having a similar feature as the old pre-Windows Borland IDEs where it was possible to copy working examples to the clipboard with a special single keystroke. Possible ways to implement this for plain HTML and for CHM have to be examined ... Having an example index and additional code-only pages for examples might be an alternative to this. Happy new Year!
