# RDoc uses file extensions to determine how to process each file. File names
# ending +.rb+ and <tt>.rbw</tt> are assumed to be Ruby source. Files
# ending +.c+ are parsed as C files. All other files are assumed to
# contain just Markup-style markup (with or without leading '#' comment
# markers). If directory names are passed to RDoc, they are scanned
# recursively for C and Ruby source files only.

# Comment blocks can be written fairly naturally, either using '#' on
