Thanks.

It's better to put copyright.sh in @file, not in @code.

Although this format is permitted, the canonical way of writing an
itemized list is to have @item on its own line:
@item
@file{*.s}
@item
@file {*.f}
...
Did you have a good reason for not using the canonical form? If not,
I'd prefer to use it, although I won't object to what you did as well.
Also, perhaps it is worthwhile to spell out the language for each file
type. Again, that's not a blocking comment.
Otherwise, okay with me.
