Autogenerating Docs

Stas has mentioned that getting the autogenerating of skeleton
pods would be useful ... Attached is a script that perhaps might
be a start in that direction - it takes a pdd file and writes a
pod outline of the included methods (name, C definition,
description, arguments, and return type).

It's a file that was in Gerald's WrapXS distribution, generated
by ModPerl::WrapXS for each module, containing information on the
available methods.

Gerald works on the generalized WrapXS, which also parses the C headers 
files and based on that will generate the pods. Lyle was/is working on 
the latter functionality.

Lyle has send me a few days ago his work, which does basicly the same. I
will take a look at both of your work during the week. To avoid duplicating
work, please wait until I have finished this. I try to do this ASAP so work
can continue and to work together on one code base.
