Kelp annotation framework
Encyclopedia
The Kelp source code
annotation framework allows one to take notes about source code files in a simple way. It is composed of a set of command line tools, and a text file
format. The text files (.kelp files) are stored separately from the source code module they describe, and can be written using any standard text-based editor. The Kelp tools retrieve the annotations using a sophisticated search pattern.
Each .kelp file contains "blades" of text, identified by a name. All blades that share a given name form a "note" (thus, notes may be spread between multiple .kelp files).
The main author is Filippo Erik Negroni; the project is regularly contributed to by Ian Appleby and Dave Harris.
Source code
In computer science, source code is text written using the format and syntax of the programming language that it is being written in. Such a language is specially designed to facilitate the work of computer programmers, who specify the actions to be performed by a computer mostly by writing source...
