+`sub` looks for special comments in a comment block in the beginning of the
+file. The special comments are:

+- `Summary:` A short description of the script.
+- `Usage:` A description of the arguments the script accepts. The `{cmd}` token

+- Extended documentation: Any other comment lines in this initial block will be
+  considered part of the extended documentation.
