That's a great idea. I guess the easiest way to implement this is to make it standard to include tags: at the top or bottom of a docstring:
(defn pmap "tags: parallel, map Blah blah blah." ...) (find-doc "parallel") --- (pmap ...) tags: parallel, map Blah blah blah. That'd be a cool, useful, easy, and, to my knowledge, unique little convention. It'd solve the problem of having to include common synonyms for people searching with find-doc. I hope that the core API would implement this. On Mar 9, 5:53 am, Mark Volkmann <r.mark.volkm...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Mon, Mar 9, 2009 at 4:03 AM, Tuomas J.
