From: Matt Corallo Date: Wed, 22 Jan 2020 23:31:57 +0000 (-0500) Subject: Clean up documentation around spendable outputs significantly. X-Git-Tag: v0.0.12~150^2 X-Git-Url: http://git.bitcoin.ninja/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=refs%2Fheads%2F2020-01-spendable-docs;p=rust-lightning Clean up documentation around spendable outputs significantly. * Fixed a number of grammar issues * Clarified the docs for users who are intimately farmiliar with arbitrary lines of text copied from the BOLTs * Added a bit more text so that things are easier to read and less disjoint. * Clarified exactly how the witness stack should look since I had to go dig for it. --- diff --git a/lightning/src/chain/keysinterface.rs b/lightning/src/chain/keysinterface.rs index 689a16603..b65cd0df7 100644 --- a/lightning/src/chain/keysinterface.rs +++ b/lightning/src/chain/keysinterface.rs @@ -30,43 +30,56 @@ use ln::msgs; use std::sync::Arc; use std::sync::atomic::{AtomicUsize, Ordering}; -/// When on-chain outputs are created by rust-lightning an event is generated which informs the -/// user thereof.
