Does anybody use generate_alphabet (from the generate_html package) ?

This function is "public" (i.e., not in the private directory) but has no documentation (not even a one-liner) and is missing from the INDEX.

I am not sure about what it supposed to do... My guess : it was used at some point to generate html pages for the alphabetical documentation of the OF site, but it isn't used any more (these pages are generated dynamically by functions_by_alpha.php, if I understand correctly).

If my guess is correct, I will remove this function from the next release of the package.

Please tell  me if I'm wrong.
It was indeed used for the alphabetical list. I do not recall if it is still in use (i.e. it might generate the database which is searched by 'functions_by_alpha.php', but I don't remember anymore).

I think the function can be dropped, but this is based on very vague memories (sorry that I can't be more specific).

Cheers
Søren
