LuaDoc
Documentation Generator Tool for the Lua language

## Overview

LuaDoc is a documentation generator tool for Lua source code. It parses the declarations and documentation comments in a set of Lua source files and produces a set of XHTML pages describing the commented declarations and functions.

The output is not limited to XHTML. Other formats can be generated by implementing new `doclets`. The format of the documentation comments is also flexible and can be customized by implementing new `taglets`. Please refer to customizing section for further information.

LuaDoc is free software and uses the same license as Lua.
