Have you ever wanted to see what things you can add in the source-view of a `bnd.bnd` file?

I just discovered there are context menu entries for [Plugins](https://bnd.bndtools.org/chapters/870-plugins.html), [Instructions](https://bnd.bndtools.org/chapters/825-instructions-ref.html), [Headers](https://bnd.bndtools.org/chapters/800-headers.html) and [Macros](https://bnd.bndtools.org/chapters/855-macros-ref.html) (in addition to some code-completion e.g. when you start typing a dash ‘-’).

Just right-click anywhere in the source view and scroll down to this:

You see a description tooltip and when you click on it, it inserts an example.

## Want to add to this, fix a description or example?

The [Syntax.java](https://github.com/bndtools/bnd/blob/master/biz.aQute.bndlib/src/aQute/bnd/help/Syntax.java) class is the place where all this is maintained and is used to show tooltips and stuff in Eclipse.

We keep extensive documentation inside the code. You can access it like this and also via the bnd command line tool.
