Subject: 2005-04-16 Paul Jakma <paul@dishone.st>

	* memtypes.c: the comment about use of comments in the comments
	  headers was causing comment within comment warnings from compiler
	* memtypes.awk: Add extensive comments on the file format for
	  memtypes.c.
	  tighten the pattern for the MTYPE matching action (suggestion from
	  Andrew) and tighten which field we try the match on.

 # Scan a file of memory definitions (see eg memtypes.c) and generate

+# Each MTYPE_ within the definition must the second token on the line,

+# '\n  {  MTYPE_AWESOME_IPV8 , "Amazing new protocol, says genius" {}..boo'

+# We try to ignore lines whose first token is /* or *, ie C comment lines.

+# '{  MTYPE_WIPPLE, "Wipple combombulator"}
+# '}}}

+# Even if it isn't quite a valid C declaration.
