Support for Stack Overflow Documentation #319

Closed stardiviner closed 6 years ago

stardiviner commented 8 years ago

Really hope for sx.el supporting Stack Overflow Documentation.

Malabarba commented 8 years ago

First and foremost: is it in the API?

vermiculus commented 8 years ago

Nope, not yet at least. v2.2 is still the most recent version of the SE API, and it does not include support for SE docs. I don't expect them to release an API until the functionality itself has settled down, though. Marking as enhancement/future.

(Don't get me wrong, I like the idea, it's just not feasible right now.)

Stack Overflow Documentation is closed now.

stardiviner commented 6 years ago

Ask a question, are you willing to integrate "SE Documentation dump" https://archive.org/details/documentation-dump.7z into sx.el?

vermiculus commented 6 years ago

I don't think that would be appropriate -- the correct course of action would probably be to generate a Texinfo file from the dump and install that to be browsed with Info.

stardiviner commented 6 years ago

This is really a great idea. Thanks.
