Thanks Michael. I've been playing around with fpdoc and trying a few 
things and then reviewing the results. Attached is the output I have 
thus far for ovorloaded functions.

NOTE:
   In generates multiple "Arguments" sections, and they seem to appear
   in the same order as what they are in the "Declaration" section.
   I only documented each parameter once in the XML, and fpdoc
   duplicated it to match the Declaration section.

   It kind of works, but there is definitely place for improvement in
   the HTML output (layout of information).


ps #1:
   I haven't tried documenting function results yet, so not sure what 
FPDOC is going to do with that in this output.


ps #2:
   Also not the "Errors" section. There I simply used the <p> tags to 
document both possible error results. I couldn't see any other way of 
doing it.

Regards,
   Graeme
