In current (13) beta of 3.5 we can find in changes list "Changed lots of
jumptargets in a way that using the exact keyword in the index always leads to
the SDL section (I hope).". I like this change. It makes geting help faster.
But can I have feature about naming then ? Can we have different names for
builded tokens and standard macro set ? I were confused when I hit F1 on
"Interpolate" and got help for "interpolate". Idea were lost in this case :-(

Somewhere in the process of building the docs all capitals are lost, so
I can't make a difference between macro's, functions and identifiers.
Also there are several identifiers that are shared among features.
So I chose to always go to an identifier, if there are more than one
use, the most obvious is chosen (IMO). For the others "sub-items" are
made for the index.
For your example, in the index you'll find:
interpolate --> jumps to SDL (and works with F1)
macro --> jumps to math.inc (doesn't work with F1)
If I remeber weel, there ar only four or five macros that share aname
with an identifier.

Oh, before you start checking them all ;)

I would like to add that I like the change so-o-o much that I would live
with these little deficiencies you mention, provided that I retain the
feature as a whole... (many thanks, Ingo).
