| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * give capsule definitions of "transitive" as it applies to inheritance and friendship * state explicitly that friendship is transitive (previous this was implied by the wording, but the word "transitive" wasn't actually used) * add some commented-out-in-the-latex notes about what "associative" and "commutative" mean With regard to the last point, Thomas and I looked at this, and came to the conclusion that we don't really know what was meant here. We'll ask Steve to investigate what the actual semantics are, and update the docs to describe this... git-svn-id: http://svn.cactuscode.org/flesh/trunk@4127 17b73243-c579-4c4c-a9d2-2d5706c11dac

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | section E2.3.2 "Parameter object specification items": completely rewrite the description of INT parameters to (a) be unambiguous (b) agree with what the code seems to do (lib/sbin/parameter_parser.pl, near line 381), and hopefully (c) be easy to understand also change some surrounding text to consistently use \var{<name with multiple words>} for metavariables; previously the text had sometimes used that form and sometimes used \var{<name\_with\_multiple\_words>} for metavariables; git-svn-id: http://svn.cactuscode.org/flesh/trunk@4122 17b73243-c579-4c4c-a9d2-2d5706c11dac
