Hi Mark,

I'm not sure if that's a good way to provide full documentation for
eggs and chicken.

One of the problems I see is that there are other types of objects
besides lambdas.

The full documentation for eggs and chicken itself is more than the
documentation of procedures and other objects.  There are examples,
authors, license sections etc, which are not source code.

I'm afraid merging two sources of documentation (from source code
files and, I guess, manually written doc files) can lead to confusion
and "kludgeness".

Best wishes,
Mario
