Both would be for the full manual. How are we going to show these
docstrings with tables in them by doing (procedure-documentation foo)?
Are we going to have to run guile in xwindows, with output to xdvi or
gv in order to get docstrings? Obviously not. Like I said, this isn't
the manual, this is the base documentation for procedures and
variables. The manual can be built around these; you don't want to get
a rendition of a cons cell if you do (procedure-documentation cons);
you want to know that cons takes two arguments and returns a cell
containing them.
