not standard-practice, but my style is to have documentation of functions
inside the function (rather than above it).
simplifies doc-generation by calling function's `.toString()` (rather than
having to parse the parse the entire script):
*```js*
*let html;let local;local = {};local.foo1 = function (aa, bb) {/* * this
function will blah blah blah */ return aa + bb;};local.foo2 = function
(cc, dd) {/* * this function will yada yada yada */ return cc + dd;};//
auto-generate doc for functions in namespace <local>html =
"<html>\n\n";Object.entries(local).sort().forEach(function ([ name,
obj]) { if (typeof obj === "function") {
obj.toString().replace((
/function\b.*?(\([\S\s]*?\))\s*?\{\n?(\s*?\/\*[\S\s]*?\*\/)/ ),
function (ignore, signature, comment) { html += "<h1>function "
+ name + " " + signature.trim() + "</h1>\n"; html += "<pre>\n" +
comment + "\n</pre>\n"; html += "\n"; }); }});html +=
"</html>\n";console.log(html);*
*```*
*output*
*```html*
*<html><h1>function foo1 (aa, bb)</h1><pre>/* * this function will blah
blah blah */</pre><h1>function foo2 (cc, dd)</h1><pre>/* * this function
will yada yada yada */</pre></html>*
*```*
