Thanks for the feedback! I think the issue might be that the If you agree that's the issue, do you have any suggestions about how to make it clearer?

* Use suggestion in haskell-servant#606 to document pattern matching client behaviour better * Helpful suggestion of reading in order in the index * A couple of extra internal links * Fox some typos / punctuation. Fixes haskell-servant#606
I am trying to build some code to access an api for Nomad. I need to send a delete request to
"/v1/job/<>", the documentation is rather lacking. I think I should be using one of "Capture, ReqBody, QueryParam" or something, but in this page http://haskell-servant.readthedocs.io/en/stable/tutorial/Client.html it is not explained exactly what capture does, or or what "And friends" means.
