Aliases are a crucial golfing feature of Jelly, one can't miss them.

Shouldn't we just put the shorter aliases in the respective atom/syntax/quick pages?

DennisMitchell commented 6 years ago

Yeah, I don't think the documentation should make any distinction between atoms/quicks and their aliases.

GolfingSuccess commented 6 years ago

@dylannrees @DennisMitchell For the record, the reason I've put the Aliases in a separate page is because I believe they can be more than just single atoms/quicks, for example, what if ẎS$ (with the appropriate chaining done in Python of course) becomes an alias? By the way, if you ask me, I would rather say that Aliases shouldn't really be a different term from Atoms and Quicks, so the other possible thing to do is to just list them in the same way as those and forget about "aliases".

The Aliases page wasn't preferred, why keep this open? :wink:
