pcb-rnd devlog

scripting, 2

+I've been working on the documentation for pcb-rnd scripting lately. +Proof reading and comments would be appreciated. The documents are +work-in-progress. +

+I have a Rosetta stone +of examples demonstrating how to write simple scripts. +It doesn't explain how the system works, but shows easy-to-understand +practical examples. Useful for those who like learn by doing and look up +the "theoretical" background only after seeing things in practice. +

+Another document, the +scripting intro focuses on explaining how things are built up. This +one is useful for those who first want to understand the design and then +look at how to do things in practice. +

+As a next step I plan to reorganize the package documentation and split +them all into a high level "what's the concept" doc and a low level +reference manual. +

+I also plan to improve the links between the docs and write more rosetta +examples. I plan to have a few more all-language examples on the most +basic things. The more complex examples would be written in awk, lua and +maybe ruby. +
