The documentation isn't all there, but you can see the functions.

This depends on #3654

See http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel/browse_thread/thread/3ef6da9c8fa7db36 for "documentation" on the functions.

I know this is preliminary but just wanted to report for others testers that this has a boat-load of doctest failures: 

...
        sage -t  devel/sage/sage/calculus/wester.py
        sage -t  devel/sage/sage/matrix/matrix2.pyx
        sage -t  devel/sage/sage/matrix/tests.py
        sage -t  devel/sage/sage/modular/modform/half_integral.py
        sage -t  devel/sage/sage/rings/finite_field_ntl_gf2e.pyx
        sage -t  devel/sage/sage/misc/functional.py

I ran testall twice and it seems that I did not pick up the failure of sage -t devel/sage/sage/calculus/wester.py or of devel/sage/sage/modular/modform/half_integral.py the first time. These aside, looks like it will eventually be a valuable contribution to SAGE.

Thanks for running testall. Some doctests are fixed in the current patch; I'll fix the other doctests in an updated patch.
