The approach I've been using for a given header is to recursively do each
of the "bits" headers which make up the standard header.  So, e.g., while
there are four headers making up <algorithm>, three of them were already
documented in the course of doing other headers.

"Untouched" means I've deliberately skipped it for various reasons, or
haven't gotten to it yet.  It /will/ be done (by somebody, eventually.)


 Area           Still needs to be doxygen-documented
-----------------------------------------------------------

c17             FINISHED (Nothing in Clause 17 "exists" in terms of code.)
c18             <limits>, Note A
c19             Note A
c20             Note A
c21             Untouched, Note B
c22             Untouched
c23             See doxygroups.cc and Note B.
c24             Untouched
c25             stl_algo.h (lots of stuff)
c26             <complex>, <valarray>, stl_numeric.h[26.4], Note A
c27             Untouched

backward/       Not scanned by doxygen.  Should it be?

ext/            Some of the SGI algorithm/functional extensions.
                All of rope/hashing/slist need docs.

__gnu_cxx       Tricky.

[1.3.5]         "implementation-defined behavior:  behavior ... that depends
                on the implementation *and that each implementation shall
                document*."  [my emphasis]  Not all implementation choices
                have been thus described; doxygen is not necessarily the
                appropriate place for such descriptions, either.

-----------------------------------------------------------

NOTES:

A)  So far I have not tried to document any of the <c*> headers.  So entities
such as atexit() are undocumented throughout the library.  Since we usually
do not have the C code (to which the doxygen comments would be attached),
this would need to be done in entirely separate files, a la doxygroups.cc.

B)  Huge chunks of containers and strings are described in common "Tables"
in the standard.  How to reproduce this information?



STYLE:
stl_deque.h, stl_pair.h, and stl_algobase.h have good examples of what I've
been using for class, namespace-scope, and function documentation, respectively.
These should serve as starting points.  /Please/ maintain the inter-word and
inter-sentence spacing, as this might be generated and/or scanned in the
future.
