It DOES do all the function header and parameter parsing. It gives a series of HTML pages that are all nicely cross-linked, decently styled and perfect for the (already static) dev doc site.

Frankly I am with Felix on this one. You think it won't be that much effort to add it to TW, and maybe with what Jeremy was pointing at, that's true. But I was looking at the project as "Let's get this stuff documented to help people (like me) bleeding through trying to understand how all the code fits together NOW," and not another feature to add to TW (isn't there a moratorium? :)

To me, the thing worth investing time in was actually adding the documentation comments to the code (which doesn't affect the code in ways that needs extensive testing) to then get the documentation generated and PUBLISHED quickly. I could get behind volunteering to write some of that documentation (because doing so would help me solidify my understanding of the codebase as a whole). I wasn't looking for yet another coding project, which the TW approach would entail, so am not that interested in volunteering for that. Finite amount of time, different priorities and all that.

The TW approach may be more "TW-pure," and more power to whoever implements it.

Ok, so what does it return? Is that usable for us? We still want to turn it into tiddlers, at least I sure do. I don't want some pdf or HTML of which YUIDOC thinks its perfect. I believe, we also want that function head parsed, not just the comments. Does it do all that in a way that we can, say, handle some big JSON output and generate the tiddlers from it?

Here's that draft I said I'd make...
