[Caml-list] Documentation of utop

[Caml-list] Documentation of utop

[Dagnat Fabien]

Hello,
Teaching ocaml, I used to introduce it using the good old ocaml toplevel (with ledit). I think utop could offer a better experience to my students.
While introducing them to the toplevel I used to refer them to the corresponding part (chapter 9) of the ocaml manual. 

I have not found anything about utop using google. The only thing is the readme but it is more an installation guide than a usage guide. Does anyone know of an equivalent reference for utop?

Thank you in advance
Fabien

Hi Fabien,

There is no such documentation for utop at the moment.  Most parts of
chapter 9 from the OCaml manual still apply to utop so it should be
easy to copy&paste and adapt it to utop.

Could you open a ticket on github [1] so I remember to do that? Also
contributions are welcome ;)

Cheers,
