+"""Parses Doxygen XML output to generate Neovim's API documentation.
+
+This would be easier using lxml and XSLT, but:
+
+ 1. This should avoid needing Python dependencies, especially ones that are
+ C modules that have library dependencies (lxml requires libxml and
+ libxslt).
+ 2. I wouldn't know how to deal with nested indentation in <para> tags using
+ XSLT.
+
+Each function documentation is formatted with the following rules:
+
+ - Maximum width of 78 characters (`text_width`).
+ - Spaces for indentation.
+ - Function signature and helptag are on the same line.
+ - Helptag is right aligned.
+ - Signature and helptag must have a minimum of 8 spaces between them.
+ - If the signature is too long, it is placed on the line after the
+ helptag. The signature wraps at `text_width - 8` characters with
+ subsequent lines indented to the open parenthesis.
+ - Documentation body will be indented by 16 spaces.
+ - Subsection bodies are indented an additional 4 spaces.
+ - Documentation body consists of the function description, parameter details,
+ return description, and C declaration.
+ - Parameters are omitted for the `void` and `Error *` types, or if the
+ parameter is marked as [out].
+ - Each function documentation is separated by a single line.
+
+The C declaration is added to the end to show actual argument types.
