tpl2dox

A simple gawk script to interpret Doxygen comments in ADMB template files.

Requirements

Doxygen and gawk must be installed on your computer.

You will probably need a working version of ADMB, too.

Include the following setting in your Doxyfile:
```
 FILTER_PATTERNS        = *.tpl=tpl2dox.sh
```

for linux, or

	FILTER_PATTERNS        = *.tpl=tpl2dox.bat

for Windoze, and add your ADMB template file to the INPUT setting, e. g.,

	INPUT                  = simple.tpl

Ensure the tpl2dox script is in the same directory as Doxyfile so that it is visible to doxygen.
Block comments are not supported for variables. Use ///< to open an in line Doxygen comment to document variables in the DATA_SECTION and PARAMETER_SECTION.
Doxygen comment blocks, such as those to document FUNCTIONs, should be opend with /** and closed with */. The other comment block delimiters are not supported.
Comment blocks shoud start in column 3 in accordance with standard ADMB coding practice.

tpl2dox does not work correctly in all cases. Occasionally functions appear in places where variables should appear. The comment blocks for certain FUNCTIONs do not appear.
Run tpl2cpp to make sure your comments blocks have not buggered up the .tpl file format.

Here are a few examples drawn from the standard suite of ADMB examples. Some work well; some don't.
