I am currently working on updating the front-end of ocamldoc, so that it 
can output the inline documentation into a ".cmd" file, to accompany the 
new ".cmt" files.

We hope to use this for generating the documentation for docs.ocaml.org, as 
well as for generating local documentation for packages installed with 
OPAM.

If Argot dumped its data in OCaml marshall format then it would be easy to 
create OCaml tools that searched through collections of .cmd/.cmt files.

Regards,

Leo
