I have been asked by several people to post a summary of responses to my 
request for C documentation tools.  Unfortunately, I have received a response
only on the call hierarchy tool.  So, if anyone knows of the existence of 
the remaining tools or maybe other useful C documentation tools, the 
information would be greatly appreciated!  

A sincere thanks to "David B. Lewis" <david@lta.com> for responding on
the call hierarchy tool!
