Dear  Mr.Nathan Kopp

I am a Japanese,and Official manual is very difficult to uderstand for me.
So in my case,
I take out mainly Syntax from manual and put them into header of source file.

And I check Token.c,Parser.c etc. files,
and I add comments(Of cource Japanese) each function,pattern and so on.
Now I make all images of all functions,pattern and so on,
then I can not make pattern of  "facets" inside pigments,
so I check source and add only use inside  "normal" message like this.

I hope plain text is better.
I attach half way of my manual of functions.
Of cource I put this in source file.
