Does Synopsis recognize "outlined" comments?

We would very much like to use Synopsis here, but AFAIK Synopsis won't 
recognize "outlined" comments for class members.  That's a problem for 
us, since the great majority of our code base uses "outlined", as 
opposed to "inlined", member function documentation.

For example, in your Path.h example, Synopsis picks up the comment for 
Path::draw(), because the comment is inlined, i.e. right next to the 
member function declaration.  However, if I write an outlined function 
*definition* and put the comment right next to that definition, then 
Synopsis doesn't pick it up.

Does Synopsis currently have the ability to recognize outlined member 
function definitions and associate their comments with the corresponding 
member function declaration?  If so, could you please point me to that 
feature?  If not, is that something that could be added to Synopsis with 
modest effort?  Depending on how big a job it would be, I might be 
willing to do it.

If you like, I can file this as a bug report.  Also, my example is 
pretty simple, but please let me know if you want to see my modified 
Path.h file.

Thank you,

Rick
