Merge bitcoin#11698: [Docs] [Qt] RPC-Console nested commands document…
…ation c3055bb Add help-console command to Qt debug console (Luke Mlsna) Pull request description: This PR would close issue bitcoin#9195 by adding documentation for the debug console features (mainly nested commands) which were added in [PR bitcoin#7783](bitcoin#7783). The following changes were made to QT debug console code: - Added a line to the initial message text at the top of the debug console: > For more information on using this console type **help-console**. - Added a pseudo-command `help-console` which is hooked after parsing the request, but before actually executing the RPC thread. It prints the following text to the console as if it were a valid RPC response. > This console accepts RPC commands using the standard syntax. > example: getblockhash 8 > This console can also accept RPC commands using bracketed syntax. > example: getblockhash(8) > A space or a comma can be used to separate arguments for either syntax. > example: sendtoaddress \<address\> \<amount\> > sendtoaddress,\<address\>,\<amount\> > Commands may be nested when specified with the bracketed syntax. > example: getblockinfo(getblockhash(0),true). > Result values can be queried with a non-quoted string in brackets. > example: getblock(getblockhash(0) true)[height] This seemed like a reasonably sane way to introduce a fake RPC help command, but Tree-SHA512: 35d73dcef9c4936b8be99e80978169f117c22b94f4400c91097bf7e0e1489060202dcd738d9debdf4c8a7bd10709e2c19d4f625f19e47c4a034f1d6019c0e0f2
