Hiding the implementation of procedures

This is very similar to what you’d get from a documentation tool like FORD or doxygen. The drawbacks that I can think of is that 1) they expect the documentation comments to have a particular style (but that is configurable) and 2) they produce html to be viewed in a browser rather than plain text to be viewed in your editor.

I have installed FORD and run it on a toy program. It would work great on my actual code, except that it recognizes comments only with !! and not a single exclamation mark. It says “the character(s) designating documentation can be changed”, but I don’t see how to do this.
