Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] [RFC] Syncing documentation vs. -help vs. qemu_options table v2

Hi,

I converted all options to the new system. Because of problems with #
and ' characters, I had to move from CPP to a Perl scripts. I'm sure
any Perl expert worth their salt could compress the scripts much
further. A comment token (HXCOMM?, deleted while parsing) would be
nice, then there could be comments that describe the syntax and usage
on top of options.hx.

Comments? Objections?

A related idea: maybe the machine definition files should also enclose
a mandatory TEXI description, leading to a generated list of machines
and their devices for qemu-doc.texi.
