Project Name

Documenting Interface Reference Documents

Project Description

Mozilla is comprised of a number of interfaces that are used for programming it and for writing add-ons for it. And majority of them are undocumented. Therefore i would be sitting down and reading files that contain information about certain interfaces (IDL - Interface Definition Files) and transcribing that information into "Interface Reference Documents Format".
