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.
