Limitations
hsc is fully dynamic and it's input size, numer of syntax-elements
and etc. is only limited by memory. However, some less important
status messages are created in classic C-strings and get truncated
if they become too long.
Known bugs
- You better not try URIs like "
:../hugo.html
"
(absolute reference to parent directory).
- The obsolete tags
<LISTING>
and <XMP>
might not be
treated correctly, as the behavior of these two seems so be not
very strickly definded.
- If a tag that defined an ID before gets stripped, the ID still
remains in the ID-table and unresolved references to it are not
detected.
- When compiled with GCC, hsc uses an unreasonable amount of
memory when processing large files. I tried a 5500 lines file,
and gcc-hsc needs 16MB instead of 600KB for sc-hsc.
- Most NEXT and PREV buttons of the docs don't fit; I just wanted to
show how to create a navigation bar, but I'm too lazy to maintain it
while the structure of the documention isn't fixed.
- As I know myself, these documents still have lots of typos and
contains some `strange english'..
