Aye, I'm still just working on figuring out how to use it :)

But since DCD does I should be able to borrow a lil code from 
there to make it happen.

Actually, while I have heard of it before, I forgot all about it 
here. Probably would have been a nicer starting point for this 
than the dscanner modules I used as guides into dparse.

Oh well. I might steal some from it now! But I still want to do 
things a little differently. See, I kinda sorta like ddoc and it 
isn't *fatally* flawed... but it is *fundamentally* flawed and I 
actually want to get away from it, not implement it again.

I want to have a slightly longer summary. I want to have 
semantic, properly encoded output. I want pasted links to 
magically become <a> tags and rich automatic linking.

I do NOT want arbitrary foo: strings at the beginning of a line 
to start a new section. I do NOT want the current symbol to be 
highlighted. I do NOT want $1 appearing in the text to do weird 
things.


So that's going to put a limit on my compatibility with Phobos.

Though maybe, just maybe, I'll use your libddoc on modules that 
start with std. and core. then do my own things on my modules.....
