Ask Fanny 0.0.4
Mini search engine for the Fantom reference documentation

Ask Fanny is a mini search engine for the reference documentation of the Fantom Programming Language - see http://fantom.org/.

It's a library that indexes and ranks all the headings and titles of the core Fantom documentation and libraies for single words, and makes them available as:

  • a programmable API
  • a Command Line Program
  • a Website

Every standard Fantom installation comes complete with examples and reference documentation. Tools such as Explorer let you view that documentation, which is great if you know what you're looking for or wish read it from start to finish like a novel.

But searching can be difficult if you don't know exactly where to look... it is hoped "Ask Fanny" fills that gap.
