Ddoc itself is provided as part of the D compiler. For usage with D source code.

Following is from http://dlang.org/ddoc.html

Using Ddoc for other Documentation

Ddoc is primarily designed for use in producing documentation from embedded comments. It can also, however, be used for processing other general documentation. The reason for doing this would be to take advantage of the macro capability of Ddoc and the D code syntax highlighting capability.

If the .d source file starts with the string "Ddoc" then it is treated as general purpose documentation, not as a D code source file. ...

Much of the D documentation itself is generated this way, including this page. Such documentation is marked at the bottom as being generated by Ddoc.

Yes, but it requires the source file to have the extension of d as listed in the quote you gave. It may be possible to rig it to do what you want. But you'll loose all the niceness e.g. function parameter grabbing.

This may be a good use case for an enhancement to the front end, to provide what you want.
