Hi, I am trying to figure out if this software has an online documentation. The Wiki pages do not have any runnable code but point to the 2013 published book. Yet the releases page states in nearly every release that the new releases are fully documented. I am struggling to understand where this documentation exists. It cannot be in the textbook, as it was published before new releases.

Is the documentation only in the source code, which means you need to open the programming language, and press help, and then the function name? If this is the case, where is the list of all function names...?

Nowadays software documentation is typically online, in the same website that hosts the software source code (most frequently GitHub or GitLab). For users that are more of this generation like myself, I believe it would be worth it adding more comments about the documentation structure in the wiki overview page, particularly the "Documentation" subsection.
