Inform 7: An Unofficial Documentation Index

Writing with Inform — aka "the Inform 7 manual", the one that comes with the compiler — is an exceptionally detailed and valuable book about the language. But it doesn't have an index. There may be an index someday; see this post on the I7 suggestions forum. For the moment, we struggle on, leaning heavily on the IDE's "search" function.

A few years ago, Sean Barrett put together an Unofficial Documentation Index, with topics linked to the manual web site. I7 has been updated several times since then, so his page is fairly out of date. (Such may be the fate of this attempt as well, but let's not borrow trouble.) With his permission, I have now revised and updating the index, at this address.

(If you're interested in how this file was generated, you can download the data files and scripts that I used.)

This index refers to Inform 7 release 6G60. (But it can be used for 6E72 and later, because the manual structure did not change in the 6F95 or 6G60 releases.)

In general, fixed-width text refers to phrases in Inform source code. SMALL CAPS refers to in-game commands (both debugging commands and those used by players).
