Estimated hours taken: 2 (plus days of discussion) doc/reference_manual.texi: Document the operational semantics which Mercury implementations are required and allowed to provide -- the change is both a refinement and a generalization of last week's three-tiered semantic model. Also include quite a bit of "rationale" text explaining it.
This directory contains the source for The Mercury user's guide The Mercury language reference manual The Mercury library reference manual The Prolog to Mercury transition guide The Mercury frequently asked questions list The master copy of each document is stored in texinfo format, from which the info, dvi and html versions are derived automatically. You can create postscript versions from either the dvi or html versions. Due to the large spacing in texinfo-generated dvi files, the postscript file generated from the html (manually via a browser such as xmosaic) will be considerably shorter than the one derived from the dvi file. The source for the Mercury library reference manual is generated automatically from the library source files themselves.
