I have, towards the start of my file:
/** Macros:
* Note = $(BR)$(BIG$(B$(GREEN Note:)))
* Todo =<br><font color=red><b>ToDo:</b> $0</font><br>
* Em = $(B$(BLUE $0))
* DoNotUse = $(B Do Not Use $0)
*/
Why do I need that DoNotUse macro to terminate the Em macro? If I
don't include it, the Em macro picks up the first line of the next
documentation comment, and includes it as a part of itself. I'm
clearly doing something wrong, but I have no idea what.
I guess if you include the DoNotUse macro, the next line will just be
part of it. That's because we somehow have to support multi-line
macros. A macros is only finished if a new macro is started or a new
Section starts. So you'll have to either write your text above the macro
section or you have to start a new section:
/**
* Summary text goes here
*
*Macros:
* Note = $(BR)$(BIG$(B$(GREEN Note:)))
* Todo =<br><font color=red><b>ToDo:</b> $0</font><br>
* Em = $(B$(BLUE $0))
*Note:
* More text here
*/

I'm guessing, and it's only a guess, after reading that link over again,
that there's no concept of documenting a file, or setting a section that
applies, at least by default, to everything in the file. So, for
example, one is expected to supply a separate author, license,
copyright, date, etc. for every variable, struct, method, class, etc.
And that it's pure happenstance that if I define a macro earlier in the
file, that I can continue to use it later.
In that case the results I've been getting make sense, however
disgusting they are.
