1. General Questions

1.1. What is it?

The FAQ package allows you to present FAQs with minimal fuss. It runs under tclhttpd.

[FAQgen]

1.3. What facilities does it provide?

Among other things, it'll produce an Index, it'll generate internal html references to sections and questions, it'll handle the numbering, and it'll let you generate links to each of these indexable elements.

1.4. Wouldn't this format be terribly easy to generate from a text file?

Yes, it would. And the text file could be generated from forms. It'd be a very nice, simple FAQomatic.

2. Detailed Questions

2.1. Shouldn't there be some detailed explanation here of each exported function from FAQ?

Yep, there certainly should.

3. Unanswered Questions

3.1. What is the "S1 Q1.1 Q1.2 Q1.3 S2 Q2.1 Q2.2" across the top, just under the heading?

This is gone now, hiding inside an HTML comment. The FAQsection and FAQ procedures return section and question numbers that you'll want to comment out.

4. Silly Questions

I wanted the FAQ to demonstrate section structure

4.2. How long did this take you to write this FAQ?

Something under 5 minutes.
