I guess the stuff with the env variable should be documented. However
what I would like to see is documentation on all the semantic actions.
As far as I am concerned if it is not documented it does not exist.

If I compare the documentation in liblouisxml.texi and the actual code
in sem_names.h I get the following discrepancies:

      * allcaps seems to be only in the documentation
      * contents is in the documentation, contents1, contents2, etc is
        in the code
      * changetable is not documented
      * compbrl is not documented
      * generic is not documented
      * linkto is mentioned in the docu but not in the code
      * htmllink and htmltarget are not documented
      * mtable is not documented
      * noindent is in the docu but not in the code
      * pagenum is not documented
      * reverse is not documented
      * rightalign is mentioned in the docs but not in the code
      * specsym is mentioned in the docs but not in the code

Thanks
