Problem with url generation when the fragment contains some symbols

[k3ut0i]

In Language/iterating.pod6, this link L<C<^> twigil|/syntax/$CIRCUMFLEX_ACCENT#(Traps_to_avoid)_twigil_^>
was translated (in language/iterating) to this link
https://docs.raku.org/syntax/$CIRCUMFLEX_ACCENT#(Traps_to_avoid)_twigil_$CIRCUMFLEX_ACCENT
where as the appropriate section is at https://docs.raku.org/syntax/$CIRCUMFLEX_ACCENT#(Traps_to_avoid)_twigil_^

So either the index entries in each document must be translated, or the fragments in the url generation must be left untranslated.

I have found a few links that involve ^ that do not redirect to the appropriate section.

L<this page|/language/variables#The_^_twigil> in Language/5to6-perlvar.pod6
L<placeholder|/language/variables#The_^_twigil> in Language/control.pod6
L<.^|/language/operators#methodop_.^> in Language/typesystem.pod6
L<More information|/language/operators#infix_(^),_infix_⊖> in Language/setbagmix.pod6

I am not sure which symbols (other than ^) are being translated. So there might be more.

That's done in Documentable. It's probably better if the issue is raised there. Thanks for providing these examples.

The issue seems to have been raised here Raku/Documentable#149 .

Should I close this ?

If you're so kind to add the examples included here as additional info, I would appreciate it.

The fact that it's not been solved is actually more convoluted than that. We don't have a principled way of generating URLs. This PR was created with that intention, but then stalled.

So having more information that can be turned into tests will certainly help. But the solution is not easy, and will not come fast, I'm afraid.

Closing this, as the issue is begin tracked here: Raku/Documentable#149
