Dear Cygwin community!

I am the co-maintainer of a source documentation tool called ROBODoc and
thought that this package could be a nice feature for the cygwin world too.

The project homepage is:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/robodoc/

I have created and placed the required cygwin package files here:
http://thuffir.th.funpic.de/cygwin/

The setup.hint file should look like this:
---[ setup.hint

# This file is used by the cygwin installation procedure
category: Devel
requires: cygwin
sdesc:    "A language independent source documentation tool"
ldesc:    "ROBODoc is a source documentation tool. The idea is to include
for
every function or procedure a standard header containing all
sorts of information about the procedure or function.  ROBODoc
extracts these headers from the source file and puts them in a
separate autodocs-file.  ROBODoc thus allows you to include the
program documentation in the source code and avoid having to
maintain two separate documents.  Or as some people put it: 'robodoc
is very useful - especially for programmers who don't like
writing documents with Word or some other strange tool.'

ROBODoc can format the headers in a number of different formats:
HTML, RTF, LaTeX, or XML DocBook. In HTML mode it can
generate cross links between headers. You can even include parts
of your source code.

ROBODoc works with many programming languages: For instance C,
Pascal, Shell Scripts, Assembler, COBOL, Occam, Postscript,
Forth, Tcl/Tk, C++, Java -- basically any program in which you
can use remarks/comments."

Looking forward to the community answer,
