A pass on the manual #495

Closed aspiwack closed 4 years ago

monoidal commented 4 years ago

I've pushed a couple of typofixes.

"This behavior can be customized using the GADT syntax." - it's now less clear that "This" is referring to the linear fields.

I would keep the fact that calling a function is linear.

I preferred the section on printing to be first, because otherwise users have to jump ahead when reading about data types.

Let's document clearly that a # m -> b is not parsed.

It's not an issue. This is where FUN ought to be. It isn't but it's a bug. I will fix, in the meantime, let's merge the manual :slightly_smiling_face:
