Doxygen - add support for mainpage tag

I'd like to implement the mainpage tag in my sources. This is where I put a lot of detail about the module. I then converted it to a library, and the mainpage information only shows in the source itself.

It's possible I've not implemented this quite right (but a doxygen build on my local computer picked up the mainpage tag). I could also understand that for a library, perhaps there should not be a mainpage.

Hi David,

Thanks for the idea. I'd like at some time to have live preview of doxygen in the IDE, so you can see the results as you develop, so we'll perhaps have a look at how things like mainpage should be supported as part of it. Priority is version control atm, but people do seem to be using the doxygen feature we added, so it will get revised at some point.

Thanks, Simon
