[WIN] parser from MakeDoc.exw [Derek]

Derek,

I'd like to make use of your version of MakeDoc to get a list of Win32Lib
routines, & other stuff, from Win32lib_full.ew, but I'm having a little
trouble.  Looks like you
may have done very nearly exactly what I need, but I can't quite see where
the data ends up so as to make use of it.

I'm trying to update a mod I made for Judith's editor, which allows for easy
pasting of all Euphoria and Win32Lib routines into the code editor from a
list of routines, in a default form showing each routines parameters.  The
mod includes a list of the names of all Win32Lib routines, what kind of
routine each is, the short description, and the html name (for jumping to
its help); when I did this previously, I modified the then current
"MakeDoc.exw" program to spit out those things into a file, in exactly the
form I wanted to put into the editor mod.

But my earlier "MakeDoc" mod doesn't seem to work with Win32Lib 0.55.1, so I
thought to try to modify its  "MakeDoc.exw" similarly, but it appears you
may have now written it so it practically does what I want, with the
constants,
   , kName        = 1     -- name of routine, first for sorting
   , kTopic       = 2     -- topic
   , kTag         = 3     -- html tag
   , kDesc        = 4     -- short info

Problem is, I can't figure out exactly where that data ends up so as to
selectively retrieve & use it.

Can you help?

Here's a sample of what my previous mod of the MakeDoc parser yielded:

-- Topics and Routines from Win32Lib,
-- Version:     0.50

global constant W32RoutinesCategories = {
    {"General (Attributes)"},
    {"Colors"},
    {"Dialogs"},
    {"Edit Control"},
    {"Event related"},
    {"Fonts"},
    {"Graphics"},
    {"Image Lists"},
    {"List Control"},
    {"ListView Control"},
    {"Low Level Routines"},
    {"MonthCalendar Control"},
    {"Mouse"},
    {"Printing"},
    {"RichEdit Control"},
    {"Scroll Control"},
    {"TreeView Control"},
    {"Types"},
    {"Utilities"},
    {"XPM (graphics)"}
}

--***************
constant AttributesStuff = {
    { "addToBand( id, band )", "Add a control to a RebarBand ",
"ADDTOBAND" },
    { "closeWindow( window )", "Close < window>. ", "CLOSEWINDOW" },
    { "create( class, title, parent, x, y, cx, cy, flags )", "Create an
object of type < class>.  ", "CREATE" },...

Thanks,
