It could be intereting to make specifications, it could show where the inconsistencies in the language are. This depends on how they are made. In my experience, a text representation makes it difficult to link foreign parts together, because my brain's buffer just isn't big enough to contain the whole specs. Is it possible to have a visual expression of the docs ? In a similar context, I really like the Io grammar diagramm[1]. Does anybody plan to do this for ruby ?
