That might be the case, but I do intend to use it in such a way in the
future, so, should that happen, I'll keep you posted.

Keep in mind, also, that GNU poke has methods, at the very least, and so
could be a point of reference.

My question was a bit different, though: it seems to me that a
linemacro/defline based abstraction could provide enough flexibility for
documenting OO code, what do you think is missing?
