For that I have to be at home where I can give you the sections.

Not the file format but the style actually. I know that it is typical
for programming language descriptions to describe the syntax in the way
it is done in the 3.1 docs. I tried to use it for a fast reference even
with parts from the 3.0 version I had forgotten (shame on me) but found
them not usable for me. Maybe you could add a small section that
explains how to understand them (or have I overseen such a part ... ?).

All the Best,

Marc
