+# This will read a 'c' file and scan for embedded comments in the
+# style of gnome comments (+minor extensions - see below).
+#
+
+# Note: This only supports 'c'.
+
+# usage:
+# kerneldoc [ -docbook | -html | -text | -man ]
+#           [ -function funcname [ -function funcname ...] ] c file(s)s > outputfile
+# or
+#           [ -nofunction funcname [ -function funcname ...] ] c file(s)s > outputfile
+#
+#  Set output format using one of -docbook -html -text or -man.  Default is man.
+#
+#  -function funcname
+#	If set, then only generate documentation for the given function(s).  All
+#	other functions are ignored.
+#
+#  -nofunction funcname
+#	If set, then only generate documentation for the other function(s).  All
+#	other functions are ignored. Cannot be used with -function together
+#	(yes thats a bug - perl hackers can fix it 8))
+#
+#  c files - list of 'c' files to process
+#
+#  All output goes to stdout, with errors to stderr.
+
+#
+# format of comments.
+# In the following table, (...)? signifies optional structure.
+#                         (...)* signifies 0 or more structure elements
+# /**
+#  * function_name(:)? (- short description)?
+# (* @parameterx: (description of parameter x)?)*
+# (* a blank line)?
+#  * (Description:)? (Description of function)?
+#  * (section header: (section description)? )*
+#  (*)?*/
+#
+# So .. the trivial example would be:
+#
+# /**
+#  * my_function
+#  **/
+#
+# If the Description: header tag is ommitted, then there must be a blank line
+# after the last parameter specification.
+# e.g.
+# /**
+#  * my_function - does my stuff
+#  * @my_arg: its mine damnit
+#  *
+#  * Does my stuff explained. 
+#  */
+#
+#  or, could also use:
+# /**
+#  * my_function - does my stuff
+#  * @my_arg: its mine damnit
+#  * Description: Does my stuff explained. 
+#  */
+# etc.
+#
