#!/usr/bin/env python

# Creates a man page from a C file.

# first argument if present is path to cmark dynamic library

# Comments beginning with `/**` are treated as Groff man, except that
# 'this' is converted to \fIthis\f[], and ''this'' to \fBthis\f[].

# Non-blank lines immediately following a man page comment are treated
# as function signatures or examples and parsed into .Ft, .Fo, .Fa, .Fc. The
# immediately preceding man documentation chunk is printed after the example
# as a comment on it.

# That's about it!
