00:32 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> adding these as snippets is really helpful: json     "Frameless Table": {         "prefix": ["ftable"],         "body": [             "[%autowidth, frame=none]",             "|===",             "${1:body}",             "|===",         ]     },     "Function Row": {         "prefix": ["frow"],         "body": [             "| ${1:name} | ${2:type} | ${3:description}",         ]     },
00:32 MTDiscord <GreenXenith> snippets?
00:32 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> VsCode snippets
00:32 MTDiscord <GreenXenith> ah
00:32 MTDiscord <GreenXenith> should still be macrod
00:33 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> We'll get there, eventually
02:35 MTDiscord <josiah_wi> Excellent idea. The technical term for the URL "macros" is attributes; perhaps we should use that to stay consistent with the asciidoc documentation.
02:37 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> Attributes are specific settings, macros are technically things like xref[] and link[], and substitutions are called..well, substitutions iirc
02:37 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> iirc anyways
13:49 MTDiscord <luatic> @Benbob0329 resolved everything, except for https://github.com/minetest/minetest_docs/pull/28#discussion_r785184378. I believe it should be mentioned there for the sake of completeness; obviously I don't consider this proper entity documentation. I wouldn't mark entity:on_step as documented after merging this PR.
15:16 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> I'll take a look in a little while
18:42 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> @Luatic Reviewed timing PR
19:30 MTDiscord <luatic> @Benbob0329 why all the macros?
19:31 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> Because that's in the template, because it's provides links to them for quick reference
19:32 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> class types also get macros (like vector)
19:32 MTDiscord <luatic> not a fan of integer -> number though
19:33 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> It's a number lua-side, thats what people will see if they check the type
19:34 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> Hmm, I agree that knowing what kind of number is helpful, but knowing what type an argument/return is is also helpful
19:35 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> Maybe we should separate these concepts
19:36 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> for example: vector.new returns a variable of type "table", which is of the "vector" class kind
19:36 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> "kind" probably isn't the best word, but I'm not sure what would be better off the top of my head
19:45 MTDiscord <GreenXenith> I dont want superfluous information
19:45 MTDiscord <GreenXenith> Having to cram two things into types is a no from me
19:45 MTDiscord <Benrob0329> knowing that something is a whole number vs a decimal is useful
19:46 MTDiscord <GreenXenith> That should be described in prose
19:58 MTDiscord <luatic> Pretty much perfect analogy IMO
19:59 MTDiscord <luatic> anology*
23:02 MTDiscord <GreenXenith> I absolutely do not want 2 values for types
23:02 MTDiscord <GreenXenith> so either figure out a way to represent it in one word or describe it elsewhere
