+ * Task template system:
+ *  templates are rules for a specific test, used to create a "task" that
+ *  is executed with those set of rules (arguments, and what not). Tests
+ *  that don't have a template with them cannot become tasks, since without
+ *  the information for that test there is no way to properly "test" them.
+ *  Rules for these templates are described in a template file, using a
+ *  task template language.
+ *
+ *  The language is a basic finite statemachine, top-down single-line
+ *  description language.
+ *
+ *  The languge is composed entierly of "tags" which describe a string of
+ *  text for a task.  Think of it much like a configuration file.  Except
+ *  it's been designed to allow flexibility and future support for prodecual
+ *  semantics.
+ *
+ *  The following "tags" are suported by the language
+ *
+ *      D:
+ *          Used to set a description of the current test, this must be
+ *          provided, this tag is NOT optional.
+ *
+ *      T:
+ *          Used to set the procedure for the given task, there are two
+ *          options for this:
+ *              -compile
+ *                  This simply performs compilation only
+ *              -execute
+ *                  This will perform compilation and execution
+ *              -fail
+ *                  This will perform compilation, but requires
+ *                  the compilation to fail in order to succeed.
+ *
+ *          This must be provided, this tag is NOT optional.
+ *
+ *      C:
+ *          Used to set the compilation flags for the given task, this
+ *          must be provided, this tag is NOT optional.
+ *
+ *      F:  Used to set some test suite flags, currently the only option
+ *          is -no-defs (to including of defs.qh)
+ *
+ *      E:
+ *          Used to set the execution flags for the given task. This tag
+ *          must be provided if T == -execute, otherwise it's erroneous
+ *          as compilation only takes place.
+ *
+ *      M:
+ *          Used to describe a string of text that should be matched from
+ *          the output of executing the task.  If this doesn't match the
+ *          task fails.  This tag must be provided if T == -execute, otherwise
+ *          it's erroneous as compilation only takes place.
+ *
+ *      I:
+ *          Used to specify the INPUT source file to operate on, this must be
+ *          provided, this tag is NOT optional
+ *
+ *
+ *  Notes:
+ *      These tags have one-time use, using them more than once will result
+ *      in template compilation errors.
+ *
+ *      Lines beginning with # or // in the template file are comments and
+ *      are ignored by the template parser.
+ *
+ *      Whitespace is optional, with exception to the colon ':' between the
+ *      tag and it's assignment value/
+ *
+ *      The template compiler will detect erronrous tags (optional tags
+ *      that need not be set), as well as missing tags, and error accordingly
+ *      this will result in the task failing.
