Let me try to doc the file your linked to and see what the problem is.
The main problem with the "IDL" style is that it is a bit "free
form".

It is possible to write your own format style parser, but that's not
for the faint of heart. I think having a more rigorous IDL format
parser would be a better solution right now.

No problem. Comments here have already helped me create more
documentation.
