Hello,
Following is a Git diff of a proposed update to the documentation.
In future, if I have a small item like this to suggest, I intend to try to combine it with other small items so as not to make too much mailing-list traffic. (I make no promises about this.)
This first minor update is just to try out the process.

Like `tt(i)', but gives the index of the last match, or all possible
matching keys in an associative array. On failure substitutes 0, or
-the empty string for an associative array. This flag is best when
