   Description     : Documentation generator for C++ based on Doxygen and mosra/m.css

mosra/m.css is a Doxygen-based documentation generator that significantly improves on Doxygen's
default output by controlling some of Doxygen's more unruly options, supplying it's own HTML+CSS
generation and adding a live search feature. Poxy builds upon both by:

   * Moving the configuration out into a TOML file
   * Preprocessing the Doxygen XML to fix a bunch of Doxygen bugs quirks
   * Postprocessing the generated HTML to improve syntax highlighting
   * Allowing source, image and example directories to be recursive
   * Automatically defining C++ language feature macros based on your project's target C++ version
   * Automatically integrating the cppreference.com doxygen tagfile
   * Providing a number of additional built-in doxygen @alias commands
   * Giving more control over the HTML inline using square-bracket [tags][/tags]
   * Adding a switchable light theme
   * Adding support for C++20 concepts
   * Self-hosting fonts to reduce external HTTP requests
   * Inlining SVGs so they can take advantage of currentColor

Hello Bastian,

These would be: misk, trieregex and pytomlpp.

I would be happy to work on bringing this to Debian. But with so many prerequisite packages,

would it make more sense to join the Python Team and work these dependencies (and eventually poxy)

through them?

This would require a lot of sponsorship support and hopefully the Python team could be
faster than mentors.

Thank you,

Lance Lin <lqi254@protonmail.com>

Please package a version with
https://github.com/marzer/poxy/commit/c40fb124ebe62b5b930ed27d53498474540a4adb
included so that you do not need python-pytomlpp.
