​​Hi Alex,

Understood. That's why a demo of such kind is still needed :)

My idea was indeed to replace the current contents with something else.
Tractatus logico-philosophicus is a great suggestion (mind you, I didn'read
it yet ... :)

Maybe it should be a bit more explicit, with a header stating explicitly:
"Demo of PicoLisp dynamically generated HTML" or something like that.

Babel :) I mean that the example contents ​better ​shouldn't be related to
PicoLisp.
Currently people could have the idea that these are the main docs on
PicoLisp, which is not good I think.
As you earlier suggested Tractatus logico-philosophicus would be a nice
replacement

OK.

Well, I intend to first complete PLEAC.
After that I'd really like to:

   - ​​update the Wiki front page a bit (in the spirit of Tractatus
   Blaesicus), which preserves it and probably makes it more visible
   - try my hand at the replacement of TB (with a bit of help maybe)
   - create standardized Wiki docs for Library References
   - rework my extra sample page a bit

Would you agree?

Thx!
