Creating page of function reference in Codex involves looking up information about function and dealing with complicated wiki markup.

This plugin automates much of the process by reading function's inline documentation and converting to wiki markup:

  • short and long function descriptions
  • parameters and their default values
  • version of WordPress function was added in
  • source file that contains a function

You can also navigate, search, sort and filter functions by much of that information in plugin's interface.
