I have an extension (gmp) that works with GMP number, using resources. How
should in the manual resource be called? In analogous places, like MySQL
chapter, all resources are listed as int. But if I write something like
"string gmp_strval(int gmpnumber)", user may think that this function
expects real integer, not "resource of type GMP integer, which is
represented internally by int". This can be misleading. So, what should I
write in this case?
