I'm all for the two entities. Having a strict output (example.outputs) and a flexible one (example.outputs.similar) will also allow us to run tests on the strict example to see if the output is accurate. didou Gabor Hojtsy wrote:
I think this could be better: <!ENTITY example.outputs '<para>The above code will output like:</para>'>
This is not English IMHO.
would "the code mentioned above's output will appear like:" be better? ;)
Although I am not a native English speaker, I have not seen using 's on multiple words this way before, so I consider your suggestion non-English. I would write the same sentence as "The output of the code mentioned above will look like:" BUT I don't think that the wording used currently in the manual needs to be changed. Goba
