c2man

   <tool> An automatic {documentation} extraction tool by Graham
   Stoney.  c2man extracts comments from {C} source code to
   generate functional interface documentation in the same format
   as sections 2 and 3 of the {Unix} Programmer's Manual.  It
   looks for comments near the objects they document, rather than
   imposing a rigid {syntax} or requiring the programmer to use a
   typesetting language.  Acceptable documentation can often be
   generated from existing code with no modifications.

   c2man supports both {K&R} and {ISO}/{ANSI C} coding styles.
   Output can be in {nroff} -man, {Texinfo} or {LaTeX} format.
   It {automagically} documents {enum} parameter and return
   values, it handles both {C} (/* */) and {C++} (//) style
   comments, but not C++ grammar (yet).  It requires {yacc},
   {byacc} or {bison} for syntax analysis; {lex} or {flex} for
   {lexical analysis} and {nroff}, {groff}, {texinfo} or {LaTeX}
   to format the output.  It runs under {Unix}, {OS/2} and
   {MS-DOS}.

   Version 2.0 patchlevel 25 (1995-10-25).
