SimpleDoc -- simpler documentation for functions and methods

Description

This package provides a simple, human-readable text format for documentation nodes as an alternative to the classic hypertext list format accepted by the document(List) function.

The new format is accepted by the doc(String) function for writing either a single or multiple documentation nodes from a string or file and adheres to the off-side rule, i.e., using indentation to separate blocks.
