Some time ago, Paul (phampton) wrote on his blog about the creation of extended documentation for the MQL5 code using some free tools like Doxygen and HTML Help. This extended documentation in the form of a a compiled HTML help file, includes class hierarchies and methods for all the code distributed under the MQL5 folder, like the MQL 5 indicators or the MQH include files.

Each MQL5 file has a reference list with all functions and variables and everything is cross-linked. There is also an alphabetical index for it. This way it can help you a lot to learn the new Metatrader 5 MQL5 programming language. You can also add custom made indicators and other MQL5 files to the documentation. Below are some screenshots illustrating the documentation file:

Paul has already compiled the documentation file, and you can download it here.
If you want to learn how you can create such a documentation file yourself, read the post on Paul's Blog.
