Description

Particularly an SML programming reference would be very helpful, since SWIG ignores Doxygen comments, and Python/Java, etc. developers are mostly flying blind. Whenever I need to understand something about the SML API, I search through Soar's C++ code for the original definition and read the comments there.

Research direction

The issue points to Soar's C++ definitions and their Doxygen comments, with SWIG currently omitting those comments. Start by locating the relevant API definitions and how this website hosts documentation. Done means an SML programming reference is generated from the comments and hosted here for Python and Java developers.
