6. Validation Notes

All changes maintain backward compatibility at the documentation level while accurately reflecting the actual BotServer implementation. The keyword format changes (removing underscores) make the BASIC dialect more natural and readable, following English-like syntax patterns.

7. Recommendations for Future Updates

  1. Consistency Check: Ensure all new documentation follows the WORD WORD format for multi-word keywords
  2. Error Handling: Use IF/THEN/ELSE patterns for error handling, not TRY/CATCH
  3. Validation: Use manual validation logic rather than non-existent validation keywords
  4. Scheduling: Document that SET SCHEDULE uses server local time only

8. Impact Assessment

  • Breaking Changes: None at the code level (documentation only)
  • User Impact: Improved accuracy and clarity in documentation
  • Developer Impact: Clear guidance on actual available keywords and constructs
  • Learning Curve: Simplified by removing non-existent features

This completes the documentation fixes as requested.
