GODI Search

[Gerd Stolpmann <info@gerd-stolpmann.de>]

Hi list,

I've just released a new feature on docs.camlcity.org that is very
interesting for GODI and non-GODI users of O'Caml. It is a search engine
that allows you to search for identifiers and other words in an (almost)
full-blown GODI installation. I've developed this engine for the last
three weeks, and the results are already very interesting.

Just try it out here:

http://docs.camlcity.org

You can search for definitions of functions like "Hashtbl.fold", other
identifiers like "in_obj_channel", or just for "Xavier Leroy". The
search engine has some O'Caml parsing capabilities, and can e.g.
distinguish between value and type identifiers.

For the query syntax see

http://docs.camlcity.org/docs/syntax.html

The syntax resembles Google's.

The engine is not yet perfect. A number of errors are listed in the FAQ
document:

http://docs.camlcity.org/docs/faq.html

I would be glad to hear of more shortcomings - so I can fix or at least
document them soon. Feature wishes and other comments are also welcome.

Hope you like it,

Gerd
