+  Format docblock for Texinfo
+
+  Currently, this only handles de-indenting text: certain Texinfo commands
+  must begin in column 1, and certain environments (like @code{example} and
+  @code{verbatim}) incur extra indentation based on how the XML docblock is
+  formatted.
+
+  This considers the indentation of the first line of the docblock following
+  the opening delimiter to be the indentation throughout the entire
+  docblock, and strips those characters from the beginning of each
+  line.  Both tabs and spaces are recognized.
