+ <description>
+ <p>This module performs an identity parse transformation of Erlang code.
+ It is included as an example for users who may wish to write their own
+ parse transformers. If the option <c>{parse_transform,Module}</c> is passed
+ to the compiler, a user written function <c>parse_transform/2</c>
+ is called by the compiler before the code is checked for
+ errors.</p>

+ <section>
+ <title>Parse Transformations</title>
+ <p>Parse transformations are used if a programmer wants to use
+ Erlang syntax, but with different semantics. The original Erlang
+ code is then transformed into other Erlang code.
+ </p>
+ <note>
+ <p>Programmers are strongly advised not to engage in parse transformations and no support is offered for problems encountered.</p>
