  * This is the js module for ctypes. Import it like so:
  *   Components.utils.import("resource://gre/modules/ctypes.jsm");
  *
  * This will create a 'ctypes' object, which provides an interface to describe
- * C types and call C functions from a dynamic library. It has the following
- * properties and functions:
+ * and instantiate C types and call C functions from a dynamic library.
  *
- *   ABI constants that specify the calling convention to use.
- *   ctypes.default_abi corresponds to the cdecl convention, and in almost all
- *   cases is the correct choice. ctypes.stdcall is provided for calling
- *   functions in the Microsoft Win32 API.
+ * For documentation on the API, see:
+ * https://developer.mozilla.org/en/js-ctypes/js-ctypes_reference
  *
- *   ctypes.default_abi    // corresponds to cdecl
- *   ctypes.stdcall_abi    // for calling Win32 API functions
- *
- *   Types available for arguments and return values, representing
- *   their C counterparts.
- *
- *   ctypes.void_t         // Only allowed for return types.
- *   ctypes.bool           // _Bool type (assumed 8 bits wide).
- *   ctypes.int8_t         // int8_t (signed char) type.
- *   ctypes.int16_t        // int16_t (short) type.
- *   ctypes.int32_t        // int32_t (int) type.
- *   ctypes.int64_t        // int64_t (long long) type.
- *   ctypes.uint8_t        // uint8_t (unsigned char) type.
- *   ctypes.uint16_t       // uint16_t (unsigned short) type.
- *   ctypes.uint32_t       // uint32_t (unsigned int) type.
- *   ctypes.uint64_t       // uint64_t (unsigned long long) type.
- *   ctypes.float          // float type.
- *   ctypes.double         // double type.
- *   ctypes.string         // C string (char *).
- *   ctypes.ustring        // 16-bit string (char16_t *).
- *
- * Library ctypes.open(name)
- *
- *   Attempts to dynamically load the specified library. Returns a Library
- *   object on success.
- *     @name        A string or nsILocalFile representing the name and path of
- *                  the library to open.
- *     @returns     A Library object.
- *
- * Library.close()
- *
- *   Unloads the currently loaded library. Any subsequent attempts to call
- *   functions on this interface will fail.
- *
- * function Library.declare(name, abi, returnType, argType1, argType2, ...)
- *
- *   Declares a C function in a library.
- *     @name        Function name. This must be a valid symbol in the library.
- *     @abi         The calling convention to use. Must be an ABI constant
- *                  from ctypes.
- *     @returnType  The return type of the function. Must be a type constant
- *                  from ctypes.
- *     @argTypes    Argument types. Must be a type constant (other than void_t)
- *                  from ctypes, or the literal string "..." to denote a
- *                  variadic function.
- *     @returns     A function object.
- *
- *   A function object can then be used to call the C function it represents
- *   like so:
- *
- *     const myFunction = myLibrary.declare("myFunction", ctypes.default_abi,
- *       ctypes.double, ctypes.int32_t, ctypes.int32_t, ...);
- *
- *     var result = myFunction(5, 10, ...);
- *
- *   Arguments will be checked against the types supplied at declaration, and
- *   some attempt to convert values (e.g. boolean true/false to integer 0/1)
- *   will be made. Otherwise, if types do not match, or conversion fails,
- *   an exception will be thrown. Arguments passed as variadic parameters
- *   must have an explicit ctypes type, since their types are not declared
- *   in the signature.
