/**
 * A [Markdown](http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/) formatter
 * for [dox](https://github.com/tj/dox). Takes dox's JSON output as stdin
 * and writes Markdown to stdout.
 *
 * * Generates API documentation as well as entire READMEs (like this one!)
 * * README generation supports [Travis-CI](https://travis-ci.org/) badges
 *
 * ## CLI Usage
 *
 *     dox -r < index.js | doxme
 *
 * The `doxme` bin supports one important option: `--readme`. When
 * provided, it generates a full README.md file, including title,
 * description, installation and test instructions, and a
 * [Travis-CI](https://travis-ci.org/) badge if the project is tested
 * with travis.
 *
 *     dox -r < index.js | doxme --readme > README.md
 *
 * ## See Also
 *
 * * [gulp-doxme](https://github.com/tomekwi/gulp-doxme) runs doxme within a
 *   [Gulp](http://gulpjs.com/) pipeline
 *
 * @module doxme
 * @param {Object} dox the output of dox as a parsed JSON object
 * @param {boolean} readme whether to output a readme or just docs
 * @param {Object} package a parsed package.json
 * @param {boolean} travis whether to output a travis badge along with docs
 * @returns {String} documentation
 * @example
 * var fs = require('fs');
 * var dox = require('dox');
 * var doxme = require('doxme');
 *
 * var sourceCode = fs.readFileSync('./index.js', 'utf8');
 * var documentation = doxme(dox.parseComments(sourceCode));
