Perfectly correct.
But it's amazing what people will use (misuse?) to produce documentation
*of any kind*, if they have tools to hand. E.g. I once wrote a complete
technical manual for an intelligent editing workstation using only a
truly ghastly //line-editor// (it's all there was to hand); likewise, at
one time I used Ventura Publisher as a word-processor, because it was
faster to do that than use anything else.
If you're already producing documentation using doxygen, it may be the
quickest way to produce any other text.
[My problem is, I see everything as ASCII, anyway. What you use to
produce that ASCII is usually irrelevant. WYSIWYG formatters only get
in the way. :]
