+.SH USING GTK-DOC STYLE INLINE DOCUMENTATION
+.PP
+If you want to use gtk-doc style inline documentation for your objects, you
+can do one of two things.  First, you could include the inline documentation
+comments in your %{ %} section which will then be put verbatim into the
+output source file.  This is the way you should use for functions you define
+outside of the class.
+.PP
+For class methods, you should use a gtk+ style comment, however it can be
+indented any number of tabs or spaces and you can use the short method name
+without the type prefix.  Gob will automatically try to extract these and
+translate to full names and put them in the output source file.  An example
+would be:
+.fi
+
+  class Gtk:Button:Example from Gtk:Button {
+          /**
+           * new:
+           *
+           * Makes a new #GtkButtonExample widget
+           *
+           * Returns: a new widget
+           **/
+          public
+          GtkWidget *
+          new(void)
+          {
+                  return GTK_WIDGET(GET_NEW);
+          }
+  } 
+
+.fi
+If the function you are documenting is a signal or a virtual then it will
+be documentating the wrapper that starts that virtual function or emits
+that signal.
