Examples are great for learning, but something that shows the accepted syntax would be welcome. However, the syntax acceped by many Mathematica commands can be complex. Looking at a pattern for an acceptable Graphics object might not be very instructive... but I'd like to see them take a crack at it. ... After they fix exporting to PNG, EPS, XML, MathML, SVG (see previous rants for specifics) ... and then after they fix imports of those same formats (see my previous rants for specifics) ... and then after they change the attributes of Plot and FindMinimum to HoldFirst instead of HoldAll (see previous posts) ... Well, actually, now that I think about it. I would rather have them do a lot of other stuff first. -- http://chris.chiasson.name/
