=head1 NAME

make-internal-documentation.pl - Generate internal documentation from C files

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 make-internal-documentation.pl --output internal-documentation.pod
   [C source files ...]

=head1 DESCRIPTION

C<make-internal-documentation.pl> is a script that generates
L<guestfs-hacking(1)/INTERNAL DOCUMENTATION>.

You must specify the name of the output file using the I<-o> or
I<--output> option, and a list of the C source files in the project.

=head2 Function and struct documentation

Internal documentation is added to the C source files using special
comments which appear before function or struct definitions:

 /**
  * Returns true if C<foo> equals C<bar>.
  */
 bool
 is_equal (const char *foo, const char *bar)
 {
   ...

 /**
  * Struct used to store C<bar>s.
  */
 struct foo_bar {
   ...

The comment is written in POD format (see L<perlpod(1)>).  It may be
on several lines, and be split into paragraphs using blank lines.

The thing being documented should appear immediately after the special
comment, and is also copied into the documentation.

=head2 File documentation

In addition, each C file may have a special comment at the top of the
file (before any C<#include> lines) which outlines what the file does.
